ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
1933
To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History:
I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the
Museum for the year ending December 31, 1933.
Like the preceding year, 1933 was marked by severely adverse
financial conditions, which caused a further decline in the value
of securities held in Field Museum's endowment funds, as well as
a reduction in income from endowments, contributions, and member-
ships. However, revenue from admissions and sundry receipts
increased $41,215.62, due entirely to the large number of visitors
who came to Chicago for A Century of Progress exposition.
The budget adopted was very much reduced, and economies were
put in force throughout the year, with the result that expenses were
kept well below the appropriations, in spite of increased expense
incurred through the necessity of handling record attendance during
a period of several months.
The increase in paid admissions, and the savings in expenses,
together with a special contribution of $13,272.23, enabled the
Museum to reduce notes payable, caused by previous years' deficits,
from $156,100 to $105,000.
There were no expeditions except those financed by funds
especially contributed for that purpose.
Notwithstanding forced economies, service to the public was
maintained in full, and never before have so many persons been
reached by the educational influences of this institution.
Visitors to the Museum during the year numbered 3,269,390,
an attendance exceeding that ever attained in a single year by any
museum in the United States, and probably a high record for the
entire world. The increase over 1932 attendance is 1,455,188, or
79 per cent. This compares with an increase of 20 per cent in 1932
over 1931. Extra-mural educational activities conducted by the
Museum benefited approximately 661,000 persons, mostly children,
making a total of more than 3,930,000 for whom the institution
functioned as a source of information. It is worth noting also that,
impressive as this figure is, it does not take into consideration others,
whose numbers are incalculable, reached by the institution indirectly
through such media for the dissemination of knowledge as Museum
11
12 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
publications and leaflets, Field Museum News, the many accounts
of Museum activities published in newspapers and magazines,
broadcasts from radio stations, motion picture newsreels, and various
other channels.
Of the 3,269,390 visitors to the Museum, only 212,298 or 63^
per cent paid admission. All the rest, numbering 3,057,092, either
came on free days, or belonged to classifications such as children,
teachers, students, and Museum Members, who are granted free
admissions on pay days. The highest attendance for any single day
occurred on Thursday, August 24, when there were 65,966 visitors.
Lecturers from the Museum, sent to the schools by the James
Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation for Public School
and Children's Lectures, spoke before 160,750 children in their
classrooms and assemblies, the talks being illustrated with stereop-
ticon slides. Daily throughout the school year approximately 500,000
children had available for study in their schools (and also in various
community centers and other institutions) the traveling natural
history exhibits circulated by the Department of the N. W. Harris
Public School Extension of Field Museum. Deliveries and collec-
tions of these cases are made on a regular schedule which provides
each public school in Chicago, and numerous private schools and
other institutions, with two new cases at intervals of two weeks.
In addition to the extension lectures in the schools, the Raymond
Foundation provided at the Museum twenty-two moving picture
programs and 284 guide-lecture tours for children. These were
attended by 37,420 children (included in the Museum's general
attendance figures), which, added to the extension lecture attendance
and the audiences at various special meetings, brings the total reached
by the activities of the Foundation, both inside and outside the
building, to 212,179.
Eighteen lectures on travel and science were given on Saturday
afternoons during March and April, and October and November,
in the James Simpson Theatre, and were attended by 22,787
adults. Also there were provided 422 guide-lecture tours for adults,
which were participated in by 13,412 persons.
Captain G. Allan Hancock, of Los Angeles, and Dr. Harry M.
Wegeforth, President of the Zoological Society of San Diego, Cali-
fornia, were elected Patrons of the Museum. This was done in
recognition of Captain Hancock's sponsorship of an expedition which
obtained excellent specimens of elephant seals for the Museum,
and in recognition of the services of both Captain Hancock and Dr.
Jan. 1934 Annual Meport of the Director 13
Wegeforth in organizing and personally participating in the work
of this expedition.
Dr. B. P. Georges Hochreutiner, Director of the Conservatoire
et Jardin Botaniques at Geneva, Switzerland, was elected a Corre-
sponding Member of the Museum in recognition of important
assistance he has rendered to Field Museum in its joint botanical
project with the Rockefeller Foundation. Through Dr. Hoch-
reutiner' s cooperation the important collections of type specimens
of plants in the institution he heads were made available for photo-
graphing, which resulted in an exceedingly important contribution
to the collection of type specimen photographs. These now number
approximately 26,000 negatives.
Five names were added to the list of Contributors to the Museum.
Prince M. U. M. Salie, of Galle, Ceylon, was elected a Contributor
in recognition of his gift to the Museum of a collection, valued at
$5,000, of fifty-five precious stones representing the principal varieties
found in Ceylon. Mr. Leon Mandel and Mr. Fred L. Mandel, Jr.,
were elected Contributors in appreciation of their generous contri-
butions of funds which made possible the Mandel-Field Museum
Zoological Expedition to Venezuela in 1932. Master Stanley Field
Blaschke was elected a Contributor in recognition of a gift of $1,000
in cash made in his name by his father, Mr. Frederick Blaschke,
of Cold Spring-on-Hudson, New York. Miss Malvina Hoffman, of
New York and Paris, was elected a Contributor in recognition of the
gift of a limestone bust of a Chinese boy which she sculptured.
Mr. Knox Hearne, of New York, was elected a Non-Resident
Life Member. A list of Members in all classes will be found at the
end of this Report (p. 109).
The Museum suffered a severe loss in the death of Dr. Oliver
Cummings Farrington, Curator of the Department of Geology for
thirty-nine years. At its meeting held on November 20, the
Board of Trustees adopted the following resolution in honor of Dr.
Farrington :
"In the death on November 2, 1933, of Dr. Oliver Cummings
Farrington, Curator of Geology at Field Museum of Natural History
since 1894, the Board of Trustees is sorrowfully aware of the loss
of one of the oldest, and one of the ablest, members of the Museum
Staff. Dr. Farrington had been associated with this institution, as
head of its Department of Geology, from the very beginnings of its
active functioning as a scientific organization.
14 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
"In scientific circles Dr. Farrington was regarded with extreme
respect and admiration not only for the very successful work he did
in building up Field Museum's geological collections and activities,
but also as a great scholar, and one of the world's foremost authorities
on gems and gem minerals, and on meteorites.
"The tremendous breadth of his knowledge of all divisions of
the science of geology, and his outstanding skill in museum work,
have their permanent monument in the exhibits occupying the various
halls of his Department, which bear throughout the evidences of
his mastery of the subjects they illustrate. Learned to the highest
degree, he was supremely possessed of that faculty which makes
the ideal museum man— the ability to translate his erudition into
forms easily intelligible to the least-read layman. He was, thus,
a great educator, spreading knowledge to the millions of people
visiting the exhibits for which he was responsible.
"Dr. Farrington frequently went out into the field to collect
material for the Museum, his most important undertaking of this
kind having been as leader of the Marshall Field Geological Expedi-
tion to Brazil in 1922-23. He was the author of important scientific
publications issued by Field Museum and other publishers. He
had achieved note as a teacher of science in academies and univer-
sities, and was an officer and fellow of prominent scientific societies
Great expositions sought and received his advice and assistance in
their scientific divisions. Some years ago the Trustees of Field
Museum elected him a Life Member of this institution.
"In his passing the Trustees recognize the loss of a man of broad
intellect and high character, whose devotion to science resulted
in a career of splendid achievements.
"Therefore, be it resolved, that this expression of the Trustees'
appreciation of Dr. Farrington's many years of loyal and valuable
service to the Museum and to science, be permanently preserved on
the records of the Board;
"And be it further resolved that our deep sympathy be conveyed
to his bereaved family, and that a copy of this resolution be trans-
mitted to his widow."
A memorial resolution was adopted also by the Director, scientific
staff, and entire personnel of the Museum.
News of the death on April 20 of Dr. William Henry Holmes
was received with regret. Dr. Holmes was the first Curator of
Anthropology of this institution, having joined the staff in 1894,
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 15
and served for several years. Later he became head curator of
anthropology of the United States National Museum, and director
of the National Gallery of Art in Washington.
At the Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees, held January
16, President Stanley Field was re-elected for the twenty-fifth time;
Second Vice-President Albert A. Sprague was elected First Vice-
President, filling the vacancy caused in that office by the death,
in August, 1932, of Mr. Martin A. Ryerson; Third Vice-President
James Simpson was elected Second Vice-President, and Trustee
Albert W. Harris was elected Third Vice-President. Mr. Solomon
A. Smith, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary, and the incumbent
Director and Secretary, were re-elected to their respective offices.
Two vacancies on the Board, caused by the deaths in 1932 of
Trustees William V. Kelley and Martin A. Ryerson, remained un-
filled during 1933.
The year was noteworthy for the number of exhibits which were
completed and opened to public view. The most important of these
were the sculptures representing the principal races of mankind in
Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall (Hall 3), and the restorations
illustrating types of prehistoric men and various phases of their
cultures in the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World (Hall C).
Both these new halls are unique in their fields — no other institu-
tion has exhibits treating these subjects on the scale undertaken
here. Their preparation involved years of research and extensive
expeditions to gather data and material in various parts of the world.
Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall has been made possible by a
large bequest from the late Chauncey Keep, for many years a Trustee
of the Museum, and by generous contributions from Mrs. Stanley
Field and Mrs. Charles H. Schweppe, of Chicago, and Trustee
Marshall Field. The hall contains nearly a hundred life-size sculp-
tures, including full-length figures, busts, and heads, chiefly in
bronze, illustrating the principal racial types of the human species
as they exist today, and depicting their physical characteristics.
The types shown range from primitive peoples still living in remote
jungle places but in danger of extinction in the near future under
the advance of the white man's civilization, to the most highly
cultured peoples of the world. All the sculptures are the work of
Miss Malvina Hoffman, well-known sculptor of New York and
Paris, who spent some three years on the task of their execution,
traveling practically around the world to obtain the most representa-
tive living models of the various races in their native lands. The
. J-
16 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
monumental sculpture in the center of the hall is a gift from Mrs.
Schweppe. This group of figures, in heroic size, of a white, a black,
and a yellow man, symbolizes the "Unity of Mankind."
The various expeditions since 1927, preliminary to the preparation
of "the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World, were financed by Mr.
Marshall Field. Among other principal contributors to the cost
of creation of this hall are Trustees Frederick H. Rawson and Silas
H. Strawn. The principal feature of the hall consists of eight repro-
ductions of actual prehistoric sites in Europe, with life-size restora-
tions of men of the various periods represented. These groups are
the work of Mr. Frederick Blaschke, well-known sculptor of Cold
Spring-on-Hudson, New York. The backgrounds were painted by
Staff Artist Charles A. Corwin. The general plan of the hall was
worked out, and its execution supervised, by Assistant Curator
Henry Field, in collaboration with Dr. Berthold Laufer, Curator of
the Department of Anthropology. The subjects of the groups
are the Chellean, Neanderthal, Aurignacian, Solutrean, Magdalenian,
Azilian, Neolithic, and Swiss Lake Dweller periods of man's develop-
ment, covering a span of from about 250,000 down to 8,000 years
ago. Supplementing the groups are extensive series of archaeological
collections and other exhibits bearing upon man's progress through
the ages from approximately one million years ago.
Another important addition to the Department of Anthropology
during the year was made by the installation in Alcove Al, between
Halls A and E, of a collection representing the ethnology of the
aboriginal tribes of Australia. This is probably the largest and most
complete collection of Australian aboriginal material in this country .
Several important habitat groups were added to the exhibits
of the Department of Zoology. An excellent group of African lions
was installed in Carl E. Akeley Memorial Hall (Hall 22). The
specimens, a large male, a female, and four small kittens, were
obtained by Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Field during a hunting trip
they made in Tanganyika in 1930. Staff Taxidermist C. J. Albrecht
mounted the animals.
In William V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17) there was installed a group
of the great gaur ox or seladang of Asia. These fine animals, rare in
museums, make a strikingly beautiful group. Dominating the group
is a large bull which fell to the rifle of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
while he was leader of the William V. Kelley-Roosevelts Expedition
to Eastern Asia for Field Museum in 1928-29. Other specimens
included are a cow presented by the late Charles Rydell of Superior,

Wisconsin, and a young calf presented for the group by Messrs.
George F. Ryan and George G. Carey, Jr., of Baltimore, who ob-
tained it on one of their expeditions. The group was prepared by
Staff Taxidermists Julius Friesser and Arthur G. Rueckert. The
background was painted by Artist Corwin.
An exhibit of Florida manatees or sea-cows was placed on view
in the Hall of Marine Mammals (Hall N). To prepare this group,
specimens of the manatee in fresh natural condition were obtained
through the cooperation of the John G. Shedd Aquarium. From
these, reproductions were made in cellulose-acetate by Staff Taxi-
dermist Leon L. Walters, assisted by Mr. Edgar G. Laybourne.
The method used is that invented by Mr. Walters, and used so
successfully in the past for reptiles and for hairless or nearly hairless
mammals. By this method the skin is reproduced in such a way as
to preserve the finest details of texture and exact shades of color.
There are two animals in the group, shown in characteristic attitudes
in an underwater scene. The background was painted by Taxider-
mist Leon L. Pray.
The orang specimens which formerly occupied a square floor
case in Carl E. Akeley Memorial Hall (Hall 22) were reinstalled in
a built-in case with a semi-elliptical painted background in William
V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17). An elaborate tree- top scene in a tropical
forest was prepared, and the group, placed in this setting, is very
much improved in beauty and realism as compared with its old
arrangement. The reinstallation and the painting of the background
are the work of Taxidermist Pray.
Another orang exhibit, a single specimen representing the first
serious attempt to apply the so-called "celluloid" process to hairy
mammals, was added to the systematic collection of mammals in
Hall 15. This specimen is partly real, and partly synthetic, and was
prepared by Taxidermist Walters. The receipt of a fresh specimen,
shortly after its death in a zoo, provided the opportunity for this
interesting experiment which has proved highly successful. By
means of the special technique employed, the natural skin is replaced
in the exhibit by a celluloid-like composition, but the original hair
of the animal is imbedded in this composition exactly as it was
formerly in the skin. This method has certain advantages over the
conventional taxidermy technique in which the dried and tanned
skins of animals are used, but it is not designed to displace the
earlier methods except for subjects to which it is peculiarly adapted.
18 Field Museum of Natural History— Reports, Vol. X
A strikingly interesting group placed in Stanley Field Hall is
that of the bower bird of New Guinea, for which specimens were
obtained by the Cornelius Crane Pacific Expedition of Field Museum
in 1929. The group includes the complicated bower, decorated with
colorful fruits and berries, built by the bird. The male is seen
performing his courtship dance while the female looks on through
the bower. The birds were mounted by Assistant Taxidermist
John W. Moyer.
In Hall 21 there was installed a screen of birds-of -paradise,
including specimens obtained by the Crane Expedition, the Kelley-
Roosevelts Asiatic Expedition, the Suydam Cutting Sikkim Expedi-
tion, and the Field Museum-Chicago Daily News Abyssinian
Expedition. These were mounted by Mr. Moyer. Five screens of
North American birds, prepared by Taxidermist Ashley Hine, were
also added to Hall 21.
An unusually large and fine specimen of bison bull, presented to
the Museum by Colonel Wallis Huidekoper, owner of the American
Ranch at Twodot, Montana, was placed on exhibition in the col-
lection of horned and hoofed mammals in George M. Pullman Hall
(Hall 13). The specimen came from a large herd on Colonel Huide-
koper's ranch. It weighed about 2,300 pounds when alive. Taxi-
dermist Julius Friesser mounted it.
An exhibit of armadillos, anteaters, sloths, and their relatives
was installed in Hall 15. The specimens include various species
collected by the Marshall Field Brazilian Expedition in 1926, an
aardvark taken on the Harold White- John Coats African Expedition
in 1929, and a specimen of Temminck's pangolin presented to the
Museum by the late Robert T. Everard, of Detroit. Also added to
Hall 15 was a case containing all the more important species of dogs
(exclusive of domestic varieties) and wolves of the world. These
were prepared by Taxidermist Albrecht.
A number of reproductions of interesting fishes were installed
in Albert W. Harris Hall (Hall 18). Among these are angler-fish,
sargassum fish, Labrador sea trout, wolf herring and bonefish. The
original specimens of some of these were obtained through the cooper-
ation of the John G. Shedd Aquarium, others were collected by
expeditions, and the bonefish was presented to the Museum by
Colonel Lewis S. Thompson of Red Bank, New Jersey. They were
prepared by Taxidermists Pray and Rueckert.
To the osteological exhibits in Hall 19 there were added screens
of skeletons of monotremes, marsupials, and edentates, prepared by
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 19
Assistant Curator Edmond N. Gueret and his assistant, Mr. D.
Dwight Davis.
An unusual exhibit, showing the fossil skeleton of a ground sloth
in the earth as it was discovered by the Marshall Field Paleontolog-
ical Expedition to Argentina and Bolivia in 1927, was installed in
Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38). This exhibit, with its explana-
tory label, serves to answer questions, often asked by visitors, as
to how paleontologists find fossil skeletons. The group was pre-
pared by Mr. Phil C. Orr of the staff of the Department of Geology.
A collection of rare elemental gases of the argon family presented
by the Air Reduction Sales Company, of Chicago, was installed
in the corridor connecting Hall 36 and Frederick J. V. Skiff Hall
(Hall 37). The gases are seen, glowing with the bright colors they
radiate when used in neon and similar signs, by exciting them^to
luminosity with an electric current which passes through the tubes
containing them when a button on the exhibition case is pressed.
Five tubes contain the gases argon, neon, helium, krypton, and
xenon, and three other tubes contain mixtures of these.
To the meteorite collection in Hall 34 there were added eighteen
specimens from the group of meteorite craters at Henbury, Australia,
which show meteorites and also the lava and silica-glass into which
some of the rock of the crater walls has been changed by the heat
resulting from the impact of gigantic meteorites. Specimens repre-
senting these features are comparatively rare, as there are only five
craters of recognized meteoritic origin in the world. Also in Hall 34
there was placed an exhibit illustrating, by five specimens showing
various stages, the method of cutting a "varnistar" from rock crystal.
The material for this exhibit was presented to the Museum by Mr.
Stephen Varni, of New York. Another exhibit added to Hall 34
consists of two large crystals of selenite in the form of prismatic
columns, so striking in appearance that they have been given a case
by themselves in the mineral collection.
The exhibit of liquid petroleum products formerly in Hall 36
has been replaced, through the courtesy of the Standard Oil Company
(Indiana), by a synoptic collection intended to indicate the wide
ramifications of petroleum products and the many ways in which
they affect our daily lives.
In the Department of Botany a plantation rubber tree showing
the manner in which the bark is cut in shallow V-shaped incisions,
and a wild rubber tree showing the effects of tapping in the crude
manner formerly in use on the lower Amazon, were placed on exhibi-
20 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
tion among the raw plant materials in Hall 28. Shown with these
are tools used for making the incisions, and specimens of Para rubber
in the form in which it comes to market. The exhibit was made
possible by gifts of material from Van Cleef Brothers and the Wilkin-
son Process Rubber Company of Chicago, and by collections obtained
by the Marshall Field Botanical Expedition to the Amazon in 1929.
To illustrate the botanical characters of the Hevea rubber tree a
fruiting branch of this tree, obtained by the Amazon expedition,
was reproduced in the Plant Reproduction Laboratories of the
Museum.
To the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29) have been added several
exhibits prepared by the Plant Reproduction Laboratories. Among
these may be mentioned the Panama hat palm; a large aquatic aroid,
Montrichardia, of tropical America, best known as the aninga; a
branch of the cupuassu tree, related to the cacao; a branch of biriba
which bears one of the largest and most delicious of tropical fruits;
and a branch of the sweet gum known as liquidambar. The labora-
tories also produced a reproduction of a tobacco plant which has
been placed on exhibition in Hall 28. A number of other additions
were made to the economic collections in Halls 25 and 28.
Besides the installation of many new exhibits, the work of
reinstallation of the collections in many halls continued in all depart-
ments. In many instances reinstallation included the addition of
new material. Detailed accounts of this work will be found under
the various Department headings in this Report. Halls in which
especially extensive reinstallations were made include Edward E.
and Emma B. Ayer Hall (Hall 2) devoted to Greek, Roman, and
Etruscan archaeology; Hall 7, archaeology of the southwestern United
States; George T. and Frances Gaylord Smith Hall (Hall 24),
Chinese archaeology; H. N. Higinbotham Hall (Hall 31), gems and
jewels; Joseph N. Field Hall (Hall A), Melanesian ethnology; and
the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29).
Although expeditions and field work were eliminated from the
budget, the Museum benefited from a number of expeditions financed
privately in the interests of the institution. Captain G. Allan
Hancock, of Los Angeles, organized and led, aboard his scien-
tific cruising ship, Velero III, an expedition to Guadalupe island
off Mexico's west coast, which obtained specimens for a proposed
habitat group of elephant seals. Dr. Harry M. Wegeforth, Presi-
dent of the Zoological Society of San Diego, California, was also
instrumental in the organization of this expedition. Part of the

Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 21
expenses were paid with money from the Mrs. Emily Crane
Chadbourne Fund. Two members of the Museum's taxidermy
staff, Messrs. Julius Friesser and Frank C. Wonder, accompanied
the party. Five fine elephant seals, ranging in weight from 250 to
5,000 pounds, were collected. The Museum is indebted to the Mex-
ican government for its cooperation in granting permission for the
hunting of these animals which are under strict protection.
The Field Museum Archaeological Expedition to the Southwest,
financed from funds provided by the late Julius and Augusta N.
Rosenwald, conducted its third season of excavations on the site of
the Lowry ruin in southwestern Colorado. Dr. Paul S. Martin,
Assistant Curator of North American Archaeology, was leader, as
in the expedition's two previous seasons in the summers of 1930
and 1931. Additional rooms of the pueblo were laid bare and
large collections of artifacts were obtained during the 1933 season.
A zoological expedition sponsored by Mr. Leon Mandel, of
Chicago, to make extensive collections of birds, mammals, reptiles,
and amphibians, sailed for Guatemala in November. This expedi-
tion, known as the Leon Mandel Guatemala Expedition of Field
Museum, will continue its work for several months of 1934. Personnel
includes Mr. Karl P. Schmidt, Assistant Curator of Reptiles, as
leader: Mr. Emmet R. Blake, ornithologist: Mr. F. J. W. Schmidt,
mammalogist; and Mr. Daniel Clark, general assistant. Mr. Mandel
himself joined the party late in the year to participate in part of
its work.
Toward the end of the year an expedition, which is to begin
operations in 1934. was organized. Mrs. Oscar Straus, of New York,
is its sponsor, and it will be known as the Straus West African
Expedition of Field Museum. The expedition will collect birds and
mammals in Senegal. Nigeria, and Angola. Mr. Rudyerd Boulton,
Assistant Curator of Birds, will be leader. Other members of the
party will be Mr. Frank C. Wonder of the museum's taxidermy
staff, Mr. John F. Jennings, of Chicago, as photographer, Mrs.
Boulton, and, for part of the trip, Mrs. Straus herself.
A number of rare fossil mammals and reptiles were obtained for
the Museum by Mr. Bryan Patterson, Assistant in Paleontology,
while on a field trip in western Colorado during the summer. He was
accompanied by Messrs. James H. and Clayton A. Quinn. Of
special importance in the collection are skulls and parts of skeletons
of an animal that has been one of the rarest of fossil mammals —
22 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Titanoides faberi, representative of the Amblypoda, an extinct order
of primitive hoofed mammals.
Mr. Sharat K. Roy, Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleon-
tology, made a valuable collection of Cambrian and Cretaceous
fossils in Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey. He was assisted
on the expedition by Mr. Floyd Markham, of Chicago.
Great progress was made in the work of photographing type
specimens of Central and South American plants in European
herbaria — a joint project of the Rockefeller Foundation and Field
Museum, in charge of Assistant Curator J. Francis Macbride. A
full report on this subject will be found under the heading Depart-
ment of Botany, Expeditions and Research (p. 44).
Arrangements were made with Rear-Admiral Richard E. Byrd,
U.S.N., to collect for the Museum, during the course of his current
expedition to the antarctic regions, eight or ten specimens of emperor
penguin for a proposed habitat group. The expenses in connection
with this project were provided for from the zoological fund con-
tributed by Mrs. Emily Crane Chadbourne.
Various benefactions, both in money and materials, were received
during the year, for which grateful acknowledgment is herewith
made. Funds received by gift are detailed below:
President Stanley Field contributed $13,272.23 towards liquida-
tion of the building fund deficit.
Mr. Marshall Field gave $9,000, his final contribution toward
payment of expenses in connection with Chauncey Keep Memorial
(Hall 3).
Mrs. James Nelson Raymond, of Chicago, contributed $3,000
which was applied toward the operating expenses of the James
Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation for Public School
and Children's Lectures, of which she is the founder, and which
she has generously supported ever since its establishment in 1925.
Mr. Leon Mandel, of Chicago, is the donor of $4,351.30 to
meet the expenses of the Leon Mandel Guatemala Expedition of
Field Museum.
Mrs. Charles H. Schweppe, of Chicago, made a gift of $3,000
to enable the Museum to purchase certain of the sculptures now
in Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall.
Mrs. E. Marshall Field, of New York, contributed $5,000 toward
the general operating expenses of the Museum.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 23
A gift of $250 was received from Mr. Henry J. Patten, of Chicago.
Mr. John P. Kellogg, of Chicago, made a gift of $150 toward
the expenses of a zoological expedition to Guatemala. Mr. B. E.
Axe and Mrs. Frances C. Axe, of Seattle, Washington, gave $70
for the purchase of a gold nugget.
Miscellaneous cash contributions totaling $9,227.19 were received
in addition to the above-mentioned individual gifts.
A bequest was left to the Museum by the late Mrs. Edward D.
Moeng, of Chicago.
From the Rosenwald Family Association the Museum received
$7,909.49 in payment of all accrued interest to October 1, 1933, on
the bequest of the late Mrs. Augusta N. Rosenwald.
The South Park Commissioners turned over to the Museum
$125,802.68, representing the institution's share, as authorized by
the state legislature, of collections made during 1933 under the
tax levies for 1931 and previous years.
Of the gifts of material for the collections of the various depart-
ments which were presented by friends of the Museum during the
year, some have already been mentioned on preceding pages in
connection with their installation as exhibits or their acquisition by
expeditions.
A notable gift is a collection of fifty-five precious stones repre-
senting the principal varieties mined in Ceylon, which was presented
by Prince M. U. M. Salie, of Galle, Ceylon. These stones have been
distributed among the collection of gems and jewels in H. N.
Higinbotham Hall (Hall 31). Mrs. Richard T. Crane, Jr., presented,
in memory of the late Richard T. Crane, Jr., Benefactor and for
many years a Trustee of the Museum, an ancient Peruvian gold
beaker of exceptional excellence. Mr. Homer E. Sargent, of
Pasadena, California, gave the Museum a fine old Mexican serape
and thirteen rare textiles from Algeria.
Through the generosity of Mr. C. Suydam Cutting, of New York,
the Museum received an extremely interesting collection of birds
and mammals from Upper Burma, where they were collected by
Lord Cranbrook and Captain F. Kingdon Ward. A fine male speci-
men of the rare spectacled bear of northern South America was
presented by Messrs. W. A. Olen and F. D. Hurley, of Clintonville,
Wisconsin. For the mineral collections a purple fluorite crystal of
unusually large size was presented by the Crystal Fluorspar Com-
pany, of Elizabethtown, Illinois. A specimen of the rare kind of
24 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
porphyry called rhombenporphyry, which is found in Oslo, Norway,
and seldom, if ever, elsewhere, was presented by Mr. Johan Eriksen,
of Oslo. Mr. Frederick Blaschke, of Cold Spring-on-Hudson, New
York, gave the Museum an interesting example of placer gold,
found in the crop of a duck. Eighteen reels of motion pictures of
Tibetan dancers were presented by Dr. Wilhelm Filchner, of Berlin,
Germany. Mrs. William H. Moore, of New York, gave the Museum
fifteen metal mirrors and other archaeological material from China.
The American Museum of Natural History, New York, made
a gift of seven reels of the Martin Johnson feature motion picture
film, Simla. Mr. Arthur S. Vernay, of New York and London,
gave two complete reels of the film, India, and some other motion
picture films. Two mounted specimens of capercaillie were received
from Mr. James Simpson. Mr. and Mrs. John P. Kellogg, of Chicago,
presented 117 African birdskins. From Mr. Philip M. Chancellor,
of Santa Barbara, California, was received a gift of forty-nine
ethnological specimens representing the Yaqui Indians of Mexico.
An extremely rare set of ten books came to the Museum as a gift
from Mrs. Robert E. Ross, Mrs. Joseph H. King, and Mrs. William
E. Pratt, of Chicago. It is the catalogue of the famous collection of
Oriental porcelains of William T. Walters in Baltimore, Maryland.
As in past years, many other gifts were received from a multitude
of sources, of which details will be found in the departmental sections
of this Report under the heading Accessions, and also in the tabu-
lated List of Accessions which begins on page 94. A number of
gifts were received during the summer from visitors to A Century
of Progress exposition who also visited the Museum and took the
opportunity to bring specimens of various kinds of objects to the
Museum for identification.
The name, Mary D. Sturges Hall, which formerly applied to
Hall 3, has been transferred to Hall 5, because of the occupation
of Hall 3 by the new exhibits pertaining to the races of mankind,
and the renaming of Hall 3 as Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall in
recognition of the late Mr. Keep's contribution toward these exhibits.
His Highness the Maharaja Gaekwar Sir Savaji Rao III, ruling
monarch of Baroda, was a visitor at Field Museum on August 29.
Among other distinguished visitors entertained at the Museum
during the year were Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Sr., widow of the
late President Theodore Roosevelt; Sir Arthur Smith Woodward,
former curator of paleontology at the British Museum; Dr. Victor
Van Straelen, Director of the Mus£e Roy ale d'Histoire Naturelle
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 25
de Belgique, Brussels; Dr. A. W. Grabau, professor of paleontology
at the National University of China and chief paleontologist of the
Chinese Geological Survey, Peiping; Professor Richard Willstatter,
of Munich, winner of the 1918 Nobel prize in chemistry; Sir John
Flett, K.B.E., of the Geological Survey of Great Britain; and Mr.
W. Campbell Smith of the mineral division of the British Museum.
During the convention of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science, held in Chicago in June, meetings of various
sections were held in the James Simpson Theatre and the small
lecture hall of Field Museum. On the evening of June 23 a special
"open house" was held for members of the association, and a large
number of the delegates attended. The use of the Museum lecture
hall was extended also to the American Association of Museums for
one of its meetings.
Because of Field Museum's important meteorite collection,
largest in the world in number of falls represented, meetings at which
the Society for Research on Meteorites was organized were held
in the lecture hall on August 21 and 22. The late Dr. Oliver C.
Farrington, then Curator of Geology, was elected honorary president
of this society, and Associate Curator Henry W. Nichols (now
Acting Curator of Geology) was elected a member of the council
of the organization.
Because of the heavy traffic caused by A Century of Progress
exposition, special regulations were put into effect by the South
Park Commissioners during the period of the fair whereby parking
of automobiles was not permitted in the vicinity of Field Museum
or other institutions in Grant Park.
Through the courtesy of WGN, the Chicago Tribune radio
station, a series of broadcasts on Field Museum and its activities
was begun in December, and will be continued into 1934. The
speakers include the Director and departmental heads of the Museum.
A number of objects for which the Museum no longer had use
because of the possession of other similar material sufficient for its
collections, or because of lack of suitable exhibition space, were
sold. Among these were the large Chinese gateway obtained at the
close of the Panama Pacific International Exposition of San
Francisco in 1915; twelve totem poles, potlatch figures, and house-
posts of the Northwest Coast Indians; material for twelve Hopi
altars; a mastodon skeleton; and miscellaneous duplicate material
of various kinds. Some 250 reproductions of Greek and Roman
bronze objects have been removed from the collections in Edward E.
26 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
and Emma B. Aver Hall, and are now available to any institutions
or private collectors who might be interested in purchasing them.
Prior to their disposal by sale, the Chinese gateway and the
totem poles were loaned to A Century of Progress exposition and
exhibited at appropriate locations on the fair grounds.
Thirty-one of the more important habitat groups of animals in
the Museum were made the subject of illustrations of a most unusual
kind in a book, The Animal Kingdom, published by the Orthovis
Company of Chicago. The pictures are printed by a special process
which makes them appear, when viewed through the "orthoscope"'
(an optical device accompanying each copy of the book . to be in
three dimensions, like the groups they depict.
Following the death of Dr. Oliver C. Farrington, Curator of the
Department of Geology. Associate Curator Henry W. Nichols was
appointed Acting Curator of the Department. Mr. Nichols had
been associated with the Museum and with Dr. Farrington since
1894, and his experience on expeditions, in research, and in museum
methods, assure that the work of the Department will be continued
uninterruptedly along the same lines upon which it has been success-
fully conducted in the past.
With a reassignment of duties, the title of Mr. Sharat K. Roy.
until recently Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology, was
changed to As;:s:an: Curator of Geology.
At the end of the year Mr. Llewelyn Williams, Assistant in Wood
Technology in the Department of Botany, was made Assistant
Curator of Economic Botany, to be effective from January 1, 1934.
Professor A. C. Noe\ paleobotanist of the University of Chicago,
was appointed Research Associate in Paleobotany on the staff of
the Museum.
Mr. Karl P. Schmidt, Assistant Curator of Reptiles, who had
:;-: granted six months' leave of absence tea research at European
museums under a fellowship grant from the John Simon Guggenheim
Memorial Foundation of New York, completed this work, and
returned to his duties at the Museum.
Miss Bertha M. Schweitzer was employed as a clerk and plant
mounter in the Department of Botany.
Under the provisions of the Field Museum Employes' Pension
Fund, insurance amounting to $6,000 was paid to Mrs. Oliver C.
Farrington, widow of the late Dr. Farrington, Curator of Geology,
whose death has been noted elsewhere in this Report.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 27
Through the assignment, late in the year, of a number of workers
to the Museum by the Illinois Emergency Relief Commission, a
considerable amount of routine clerical and similar work, which
otherwise would have had to be postponed indefinitely, was accom-
plished without additional payroll expense to the Museum. Some
of these workers are employed under the provisions of the Civil
Works Service of the federal government, which pays them, and
others are employed under the Illinois "work relief" plan and paid
by the state. This arrangement, which is of benefit both to persons
who would otherwise be unemployed, and to the Museum, will be
continued in 1934.
The scope of the Art Research Classes conducted at the Museum
in cooperation with the Art Institute of Chicago was greatly ex-
panded, and the number of students exceeded that of any previous
year. In addition to the original class in drawing, painting, and
illustration, which was continued with some thirty-five students
enrolled, classes were organized for three new groups.
One of the new classes is a separate training group for art teachers
in which there were another thirty-five students. Study at Field
Museum has now been designated as a required course for all students
in teachers' training classes of the School of the Art Institute.
Another of the new classes established in 1933 is one for a summer
course, designed to meet the needs of teachers and others who wish
to pursue further art research studies and are unable, because of
their employment, to attend the autumn, winter, and spring classes.
About eighteen students participated in this course. The third new
class is one conducted on Saturdays through the greater part of the
year, which offers supplementary work for the benefit of professional
artists, teachers, and others who are engaged on other days but can
devote a half or a full day to study on Saturdays. In this group there
were about fifteen persons enrolled.
Much work of high quality was produced by students in all the
classes. The same instructor who has conducted these classes for a
number of years, Mr. John Gilbert "Wilkins, of the faculty of the Art
Institute school, was again in charge. The students use exhibits in
the Museum as subjects for the paintings, designs, sculptures, and
other work they produce. A classroom with working facilities is
provided by the Museum for their use.
The students in the above-mentioned classes are all engaged
in comparatively advanced work. In addition to these, the classes of
children inaugurated in 1932 by the Saturday School of the Art
28 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Institute were continued in 1933. More than one hundred children
were enrolled in these. They ranged from pupils in the fourth grade
of elementary schools to high school students.
From June 1 to September 30, a period corresponding to the
most important months of A Century of Progress exposition, the
Museum was kept open daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., or an hour later
than is usual in the summer schedule.
Measures to save expense on electric lighting were continued,
and in the autumn the Museum signed an "off peak" form of con-
tract with the Commonwealth Edison Company from which economy
benefits might be derived. This called for a reduction of the amount
of current used between the hours of 4:30 P.M. and 7:30 P.M. during
the months of November, December, January, and February. To
facilitate this, and for other reasons, changes were made in the
schedule of visiting hours to be observed at the Museum in
future. Henceforth the hours during the various seasons will be
as follows: November 1 to March 31, 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ; April 1 to 30
and September 1 to October 31, 9 A.M. to 5 P.M.; May 1 to August 31,
9 A.M. to 6 P.M. During the period when the 4:30 closing hour is
in effect, the Museum will be kept open until 5 o'clock on Sundays
and holidays; in September, up to and including Labor Day, the
closing hour will be 6 P.M.
The use of electricity was further cut down during the daytime
hours by changing the lighting in the shop of the Division of Printing;
by installing pendant switches in the general Library and the libraries
of the Departments of Botany and Geology; and by using only the
two center chandeliers in Stanley Field Hall on dark days when the
hall required lighting.
The superintendent of maintenance, the chief engineer, and the
working forces under their supervision, gave the usual careful atten-
tion to proper maintenance of the building, and many improve-
ments were effected. Some of the more important are detailed below.
Foreseeing unusual crowds during the summer months, revisions
were made in the arrangement of the ticket and checking counters
at the north and south entrances to facilitate service to the public.
New checking facilities were provided for 600 umbrellas, 300 coats,
and many packages.
The opening this year of the two large new halls in the Department
of Anthropology — Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall (Hall 3) and the
Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World (Hall C) — imposed especially
heavy work upon the maintenance division. To prepare Hall 3

Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 29
to become Keep Hall it was first necessary to remove from it all the
cases devoted to North American archaeology which formerly
occupied it. These were transferred from the first floor to their new
location in Hall B on the ground floor. Prior to this operation Hall B
was prepared to receive these exhibits. Twelve insulating panels
with ventilators in the windows were installed; the doors and tile
wall at the east end of the hall were removed; the ceiling lights were
rearranged in two straight lines; and the walls and ceiling were
patched and painted.
Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall (Hall 3) was entirely remodeled.
The central part of the hall was reconstructed to form an octagon
around the "Unity of Mankind" bronze group, and the sections of
the hall on either side of this octagon were reconstructed into a
series of alcoves (see Plate III). Seventy-seven pedestals were built
for the exhibition of the bronze and stone figures created by Miss
Malvina Hoffman; also three shadow box niches in the walls. At
the east end of the hall eight individually lighted wall cases were
built and prepared for the installation of physical anthropology
exhibits. Four temporary display boxes were provided for illumi-
nated colored transparent pictures. The walls and ceiling of Keep
Hall were decorated; a rubber tile floor and baseboard were in-
stalled; four new double benches were provided; and the hall was
equipped with indirect illumination. A partition was built be-
tween Keep Hall and James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond
Hall (Hall 4).
In the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World (Hall C) the fronts
of eight group cases were built out to provide space for tipping the
view glasses forward so as to eliminate reflections. Six new wall
cases were built in this hall, and the ground framework was con-
structed for four groups. All sixteen cases on the south side of this
hall were glazed and finished, and the walls and ceiling were patched
and painted.
The maintenance force gave assistance to the scientific Depart-
ments in various other new installations, reinstallations, or rearrange-
ments of exhibits. Among such operations were the following:
remodeling of the case containing the group showing Indians making
stone implements, in Hall B; remodeling of the case containing
the model of a Walpi pueblo in Hall 7 (Stanley McCormick Col-
lection, archaeology and ethnology of southwestern United States) ;
building the ground framework for the gaur ox and orang groups in
William V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17), and glazing and finishing the cases
30 Field Museum of Natural History— Reports, Vol. X
containing them; remodeling a built-in case at the west end of the
same hall for a proposed proboscis monkey group; reconstruction
of a 12'xl2' case for the new lion group in Carl E. Akeley Memorial
Hall (Hall 22) ; rebuilding a 15' x 15' case in the same hall to accom-
modate a proposed group of bongo; construction of a wall case for
the exhibit of rhinoceros horn cups in George T. and Frances
Gaylord Smith Hall (Hall 24); and construction, glazing, and
finishing of the case containing the new exhibit of a fossil sloth in
matrix, in Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38).
All lighting fixtures, and the tops of built-in exhibition cases
containing concealed lighting arrangements, were cleaned in the
early part of the year. In Hall B, to which the North American
archaeological exhibits have been transferred, twenty-five lighting
fixtures were hung, and one large case was equipped for illumination.
In the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World (Hall C) electrical work
was completed on the cases containing the groups, and fifteen floor
cases were wired for lighting. In Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall
(Hall 3) twenty-six new circuits were run in, 226 lamps installed, and
eight wall cases wired. In George T. and Frances Gaylord Smith
Hall (Hall 24) eleven wall cases were wired.
In the general Library 1,350 square feet of steel shelving were
installed. In the Herbarium seven additional all-steel eight-door
storage cases were assembled. In the Department of Zoology
laboratories twenty-seven all-steel bird and mammal storage cases,
with 240 large trays and 600 small ones, were provided.
On the exterior of the building, sixty-three window sills and eight
window transoms were replaced, and twenty-three sills were repaired.
Five large signs containing information about the Museum for
visitors to A Century of Progress were set up at advantageous
locations on the lawns around the Museum.
In the public lavatories valves were overhauled generally. The
Crane Company, of Chicago, changed all old valves in the men's
lavatory, which had been giving trouble, to a new type which has
proved very satisfactory. This was done without cost to the Museum.
Because of the building of street car tracks over the Illinois
Central Railroad the Museum water main had to be changed and
about 500 feet of new pipe laid. This involved no expense to the
Museum.
During the summer the boilers and the heating system in general
were carefully gone over, and the brick work and stokers were
repaired.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 31
Under its contract with the John G. Shedd Aquarium, the
Museum continued to furnish steam from its plant to the aquarium
during the months when heat was required.
DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH
During the summer of 1933, Field Museum resumed its archaeo-
logical investigations on the Lowry ruin in southwestern Colorado
by sending out a third expedition under the leadership of Assistant
Curator Paul S. Martin. Dr. Martin had previously spent two
seasons there in 1930 and 1931. He left Chicago by motor car on
June 16, and returned to the city October 2. The length of time
spent in the field amounted to thirteen weeks. This expedition,
known as the Field Museum Archaeological Expedition to the
Southwest, was financed from the income of a fund established by
the late Julius and Augusta N. Rosenwald.
The ruin explored by Dr. Martin, under permit from Secretary
of the Interior Harold L. Ickes, is located about thirty-two miles
northwest of Cortez in Montezuma County, and contains a pre-
historic Indian pueblo. From four to seven men were employed
according to need during the season. Ten large dwelling rooms of
the pueblo and one kiva (underground chamber in which ceremonies
were held) were completely laid bare. In the course of these excava-
tions 1,015 cubic yards of earth and rock were moved. The total
number of ground floor rooms now open is twenty-eight. Two more
kivas were found, bringing the total number for the three seasons'
work up to nine. Also, considerable trenching was undertaken.
Several important discoveries were made. It has now been made
certain that the area at present occupied by the two superposed
kivas was at one time composed of secular or dwelling rooms. Only
the dismembered fragments of the walls which had at one time con-
stituted the partitions of these rooms were found, but they were
sufficient to give the sequence of development and change. It was
found also that the builders of Lowry Pueblo often tore away portions
of old walls and tied new ones into them. Thus, the striking dif-
ferences in masonry in two walls apparently built at the same
time may be properly explained.
It was likewise discovered that a former dwelling room was partly
demolished and then enlarged so as to enclose a later kiva. The
nature of this enlargement and the remnants of the demolished wall
32 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
were cleverly concealed by the free use of adobe mortar and spalls.
It was not until this season that certain architectural anomalies of
this kiva enclosure were understood.
A very accurate set of ground plans and cross sections was
prepared, traced, and blue-printed. The excavating was conducted
in such a way that a careful record of all potsherds was obtained,
the specimens yielded by each foot of ground being separately sacked
and catalogued. From these potsherds it will be possible to work
out the stratigraphy, if any should exist, and to correlate the ceramic
types with the masonry and the dated portions of the pueblo.
Thirty-five portions of roof beams and lintels were recovered, treated
with paraffin, and shipped to the Laboratory of Anthropology at
Santa Fe\ New Mexico, for study and dating. One hundred and
eight photographs were made by the expedition. These were taken
especially to show unusual and significant phases of the work, details
of masonry, abutments, ties, position of roof beams, and perishable
materials. A scale model, showing two phases in the development
of the pueblo, was constructed of wood and brought to the Museum.
The results of this season's efforts are more satisfactory than
those of the preceding ones. Further excavations have confirmed
some of the conclusions reached after the season of 1931. Lowry
Pueblo was first of all Chacoan in culture and was successively
changed, modified, and added to by its builders, their descendants,
and finally by newcomers. Room construction, types of masonry,
and ceramic changes all bear out this conclusion. However, certain
hypotheses which previously seemed reasonable had to be discarded
in the light of new evidence obtained this season. Moreover, there
remain many puzzling features still to be explained, and this can
be accomplished only by further digging.
Assistant Curator Wilfrid D. Hambly completed a manuscript
on the ethnology of Australia to be published in the leaflet series.
Assistant Curator J. Eric Thompson wrote a handbook on the
archaeology of South America with reference to the exhibits in Hall 9,
which it is hoped will be brought out next year. Two interesting
leaflets, one entitled The Races of Mankind, an Introduction to
Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall, the other, Prehistoric Man, Hall of
the Stone Age of the Old World, were written by Assistant Curator
Henry Field, and published as Anthropology Leaflets Nos. 30 and 31.
The Archaeology of North America, a guide to the exhibits in Hall B,
written by Assistant Curator Martin, was issued as Anthropology
Guide, Part 2. This is a most useful and instructive handbook

Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 33
presenting for students and the general public an excellent survey
of the early history of the Indians in North America, with a lucid
exposition of the archaeological material.
Curator Berthold Laufer devoted most of his time during the
year to the reinstallation of the Chinese and classical collections.
He also made some researches into the history of buckwheat, maize,
rye, wheat, and other cereals.
Sixteen signed articles were contributed by the staff of the Depart-
ment to Field Museum News during the year; also twenty-five
unsigned articles and brief items. Data for twenty-four newspaper
publicity stories were likewise supplied by the staff.
ACCESSIONS — ANTHROPOLOGY
The number of accessions recorded during the year is forty-seven.
Of these thirty-nine are gifts, two result from expeditions, and
six were obtained by exchange. The total number of objects received
in these accessions is 2,327.
An important gift consisting of seven Navaho blankets was
received from the estate of the late Edward E. Ayer, Benefactor and
former Trustee of the Museum. These blankets were obtained by
Mr. Ayer some thirty years ago, and are distinguished because of
their mellow colors and exceptional weaves.
An exchange made with Mr. Warren K. Moorehead, of Andover,
Massachusetts, resulted in the acquisition of twelve stone artifacts
which belong to the Red Paint Culture of Maine. Likewise by
exchange with Mr. Frank F. McArthur, of Oakland, Iowa, there
were acquired ten fine examples of early Pueblo pottery recovered
from burial mounds in southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah.
More than fifteen hundred objects were obtained through the
Field Museum Archaeological Expedition to the Southwest. This
collection consists of a large variety of bone and stone tools, pottery,
potsherds, beads, articles of wood, pendants, animal bones, and
two pairs of elk antlers, the points of which have been beveled.
They may have formed part of a ceremonial headdress.
The collection of Mexican serape blankets has been enriched by
two remarkable gifts. The first of these is a very finely woven
serape presented by Mr. Homer E. Sargent, of Pasadena, California
(formerly of Chicago), an old friend and generous patron of this
institution, as an addition to the Sargent-Ryerson collection of
Mexican serapes on exhibition in Hall 8. Another serape, received
from the estate of the late Edward E. Ayer, is made of two strips
34 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
woven together lengthwise. Judging by the ornamentation, both
serapes were probably made in the neighborhood of Saltillo, in
northern Mexico.
Thirteen beautiful textiles of fine quality, from the Kabyles of
Algeria, are another gift from Mr. Sargent, who had collected them
personally many years ago during a journey in northern Africa.
The collection comprises well-woven and decorated rugs such as
are used in the mosques and in better-class families, draperies for
decorating the walls of mosques, and examples of the capes worn by
Kabyle women. All these textiles were made by hand on primitive
looms worked by women in their own homes. They could not be
obtained at present, and are a most valuable addition to the Mu-
seum's African collections.
By exchange with the Department of Middle American Research,
Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, the Museum acquired
a collection of fifty-two pottery figurines and vessels belonging to
the Huaxtec culture of eastern Mexico, which was hitherto poorly
represented in the Museum collections.
Mrs. Wills B. Lane, of Savannah, Georgia, presented a four-
piece costume worn during festivals by Indian men of rank in Santo
Tomas, Chichicastenango, Guatemala. This costume was placed on
exhibition immediately. Examples of men's ceremonial clothes are
difficult to obtain in that part of Guatemala, and the Museum
previously had possessed no complete costume representing the
types used there.
In memory of the late Richard T. Crane, Jr., Benefactor and
for many years a Trustee of Field Museum, Mrs. Crane, his widow,
presented a gold beaker from the highlands of Peru. This valuable
vessel, about six hundred years old, is described in Field Museum
News, Volume 4, No. 9, September, 1933, and has been placed on
exhibition in H. N. Higinbotham Hall (Hall 31).
Miss Lucy D. Plummer, of Chicago, gave the Museum thirteen
pottery vessels which she had collected. They are beautiful examples
of the decorative skill of the Conibo Indians, who live on the banks
of the Ucayali River, a tributary of the Amazon, in eastern Peru.
From another tributary of the Amazon, the Jary River, comes
an ethnological collection of twenty-four pieces presented by Pro-
fessor Franz F. Exner, of Northfield, Minnesota. The collection
consists of bows, arrows, a paddle, and eight pottery vessels manu-
factured by the Aparai Indians. The decorations on the arrows are
of very high quality.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 35
Eight motion picture reels representing religious dances and
pantomimes of Tibetan Lamas were presented by Dr. Wilhelm
Filchner of Berlin, well-known explorer of Tibet, who made these
films on his last expedition. They are not only of educational and
artistic value, but are also helpful in the study of these curious
dances, in connection with which the Museum has a comprehensive
collection of masks and costumed figures on exhibition in the West
Gallery (Hall 32).
An important addition to the Chinese collection is a gift from
Mrs. William K. Moore, of New York (formerly of Chicago), of
sixteen metal mirrors, several bronze ornaments for chariots and
harness, and a cast-iron frog. The mirrors come from the Huai
River Valley in Anhui Province, China, and date in the third century
B.C. They are elaborately decorated with geometric designs in relief
and represent the earliest Chinese mirrors now extant.
A legacy of $50,000 left to the Museum by the late Chauncey
Keep, a member of the Board of Trustees from 1915 until his death
in 1929, was applied to the expense of the construction work in Hall 3
(named in his honor Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall), and to the cost
of a number of the bronze figures, busts, and heads sculptured by
Miss Malvina Hoffman and placed on exhibition in the hall. The
balance of the cost of this notable exhibit illustrating the races of
mankind has been met by generous contributions, totaling more
than $150,000, from Mr. Marshall Field, Mrs. Stanley Field, and
Mrs. Charles H. Schweppe.
Mr. Marshall Field is the donor of sculptures of a Bushman
family, an aged Bushman, a Batwa boy, a Mangbetu woman, a
Negro from Dahomey, an Ituri Pygmy group, a fisherman from
Sicily, a Vedda, a Rajput woman, a Singhalese, an Indian Brahman,
an Afghan, an Andaman Islander, an Eskimo man and woman, four
Chinese, a Tibetan, a Manchu, a Japanese, a Malay, a Dyak, and
an Australian aborigine.
Mrs. Stanley Field presented the sculptures of a Bushman woman,
an African dancing girl of the Sara tribe, a woman from the Sudan,
a Senegal Negro, an Abyssinian Hamite, a Breton woman, a Basque,
an Arab, a Bengali woman, a Burmese, a Mongol, a Tibetan woman,
a Japanese lady, a Blackfoot Indian, a Hawaiian, a Samoan, a Jakun
woman, a Javanese boy and woman, and a group of Malayan cock-
fighters consisting of two men, a woman, and a boy.
The sculptures of a Shilluk warrior, two Negroes, a Somali, an
Ubangi woman, a Nubian, a Frenchman, an Anglo-Saxon, a Chinese,
36 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
two Kashmiris, a Bengali, a Tamil, a Chinese jinriksha man, two
Ainus, a Hawaiian surf-rider, an Australian aborigine mother and
child, a Balinese woman, a Maya, a Patagonian, a Georgian, a Lapp,
and an Italian were presented by the late Chauncey Keep.
Mrs. Charles H. Schweppe contributed to Chauncey Keep
Memorial Hall the group of three bronze figures of heroic size sym-
bolizing the unity of mankind, which occupies the center of the hall,
the stone head of an Indian woman from Jaipur, the limestone bust
of a Chinese woman, and the black marble head of an Abyssinian
woman.
Miss Hoffman, the sculptor, presented the head of a Shanghai
Chinese sculptured in limestone. At the end of the year she was
engaged in modeling the remaining pieces which are to be placed
in the hall.
A collection of silver ornaments and other jewelry worn by the
Druze women in the Lebanon, Syria, was obtained and presented
by Miss Nejla Izzeddin, of the Oriental Institute of the University
of Chicago, who last year made an anthropometric survey of the
Druzes of Syria.
A collection of Arab household equipment used by the modern
Arabs of the Kish area is a gift from Mr. Henry Field, of Chicago.
The collection contains also interesting camel bags of the Beduins,
and a coffee bag, measure, pestle and mortar of the Druzes. Like-
wise presented by Mr. Field were twenty-five pottery sherds with
painted designs, and a glass vessel which he excavated at Niliat,
about ten miles east of Kish.
Mr. Field also presented a collection of twenty-one chert pro-
jectile points, resembling somewhat those found with fossil bison
at Folsom, New Mexico.
From the Mus£e d'Ethnographie, Paris, the Museum received
in exchange four objects collected by the Dakar-Djibouti Expedition
in 1931. Since the Museum has no other material from French West
Africa, these objects are especially useful. Two of them, a musical
instrument and a painted stone, were used in sacred ceremonies
of initiation. Mr. H. G. Moore, of Peoria, Illinois, presented five
musical instruments — a drum of fine workmanship from Zanzibar,
three stringed instruments of Arab origin which are used in North
Africa and western Asia, and a primitive one-stringed instrument
consisting of a wooden resonator, used by Hottentots and some
southern Bantu tribes.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 37
Through a gift from Mrs. Laura C. Boulton, of Chicago, there
have been added several valuable objects to the collections from
Angola, Portuguese West Africa. Included is a marimba, an excellent
example of this kind of musical instrument, made by fastening thin
slats of wood to a frame. Under each piece of wood is a gourd that
gives resonance when the wooden slats are beaten with rubber-
headed sticks. Like this marimba, a tubular drum presented by
Mrs. Boulton is valuable because of the increasing rarity of such
instruments. Owing to the advance of European influences
difficulty is experienced in finding artisans who are able to make
these instruments, and musicians who can play them. A finely carved
mask of the Vachokue tribe of eastern Angola is of scientific interest
because of its association with initiation ceremonies. The collection
also includes carved wooden staffs and basketry.
By exchange with the National Museum of Copenhagen, Den-
mark, there were received a number of reproductions of well-selected
implements belonging to the Danish Maglemosean and kitchen-
midden cultures, together with a number of original specimens repre-
senting various types of implements of these periods.
CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING — ANTHROPOLOGY
Thirty-four of the forty-seven accessions received during the year
have been entered in the inventory books. Six accessions of previous
years and parts of seven others have also been entered.
The work of cataloguing has been continued as usual, the number
of catalogue cards prepared during the year totaling 1,492. The
total number of catalogue cards entered from the opening of the
first inventory volume is 207,375.
The catalogue cards prepared are distributed as follows: archae-
ology and ethnology of North America, 130; archaeology and eth-
nology of Mexico, Central and South America, 275 ; archaeology and
ethnology of China and Japan, 131; archaeology of the Gobi Desert,
Mongolia, 178; ethnology of Melanesia, 2; ethnology of Africa, 22;
archaeology of the Near East, 27; archaeology of continental Europe,
702; archaeology of England and Scotland, 24; physical anthropology,
1. All these cards have been entered in the inventory volumes, which
number fifty-seven.
A total of 10,051 labels for use in exhibition cases was supplied
by the Division of Printing. These labels are distributed among the
collections as follows: classical archaeology, 1,911; Chauncey Keep
Memorial Hall, 540; Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World, 1,678;
38 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Melanesia, 2,337; China, 1,880; Australia, 452; Africa, 42 ; Southwest,
840; Central and South America, 357; and 14 hall labels. The
Division of Printing also supplied 2,650 catalogue cards and 100
accession number stickers for use in the files.
The number of photographs mounted in albums is 700. Five
new albums were opened. To the label file 990 cards were added.
installations and rearrangements — anthropology
The Department has an exceptional record this year in that two
new halls were opened and three halls were completely reorganized
in such a way that they present an entirely new appearance.
One hundred and five exhibition cases were installed during the
year, distributed as follows:
Edward E. and Emma B. Ayer Hall (Hall 2) 26
Southwest Archaeology and Ethnology (Hall 7) 8
Archaeology and Ethnology of Mexico and Central America (Hall 8) . 1
George T. and Frances Gaylord Smith Hall (Hall 24) 9
Ethnology of China and Tibet (Hall 32) 2
Joseph N. Field Hall (Hall A) 28
Ethnology of Australia (Alcove Al) 5
Stone Age of the Old World (Hall C) 25
Ethnology of Africa (Hall D) 1
Total 105
The collections pertaining to classical archaeology, chiefly froi
Italy, displayed in Edward E. and Emma B. Ayer Hall (Hall 2),
have been completely revised, relabeled, and reinstalled in twenty-
six cases by the Curator. The material has been carefully studied
and sifted, unessential objects have been eliminated, and many
pieces not previously shown have been placed on exhibition. Above
all, a much clearer and more intelligent arrangement has been
effected. With the exception of surgical and musical instruments
and some steelyards and weights, which have been installed in one
case, all metal reproductions of Greek and Roman bronzes and
furniture have been removed from exhibition. The collection is
particularly strong in Etruscan and Pompeiian archaeological
material. The Etruscan exhibits are displayed in fourteen cases
north of the stairway that leads to the ground floor and divides
the hall into two equal sections. There is a comprehensive display
of plain, black, and painted Etruscan ceramics, and of marble,
alabaster, and tufa cinerary urns and sarcophagi. Three of the
sarcophagi, decorated with marine monsters and sphinxes in bright
colors, are unique. South of the stairway are exhibited household
utensils of bronze, iron, pottery, and glass found in Pompeii, Bos-
coreale, and other places in Italy. The frescoes formerly shown in
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 39
the hall are now displayed in the adjoining corridor, where they
can be seen to greater advantage. At the south end of the hall
there are four cases containing good specimens of Oriental and
Roman glass to which some fine examples of colored glass found in
the Sassanian palaces at Kish have been added. Each case is fully
labeled and provided with an instructive map.
Chauncey Keep Memorial Hall (Hall 3) was opened to the
public on June 6. It contains sculptures in bronze and stone illustrat-
ing the principal types found among the races of mankind, the work
of Miss Malvina Hoffman. On account of the unique character
of its contents, the hall required special treatment and a great
amount of thoughtful planning. New resources of museum technique
were applied to it, and a great deal of construction work had to be
undertaken. Alcoves were built to provide a suitable setting for
the sculptures. Numerous experiments were made with reference
to the color of backgrounds and systems of lighting, until at last a
satisfactory and harmonious exhibition was achieved. The exhibits,
consisting of full-length figures, busts, and heads, are arranged in
geographical order, sections being devoted to each of the principal
racial divisions — those of Africa, Europe, Asia, America, Oceania,
and Australia. Included are several attractive groups, such as a
Bushman family, Ituri Forest Pygmies, Malayan cockfighters, and
an Australian aborigine mother and child. Thirty-one colored
transparencies representing various racial types, made under the
direction of Miss Hoffman, are shown at the east end of the hall.
Installation of the hall is not yet completed. A number of bronze
heads and a full-length figure of a Pueblo Indian woman remain to
be made, and special exhibits in physical anthropology will be installed
during the coming year. Two views of Chauncey Keep Memorial
Hall are shown in Plates III and IV of this Report.
The reorganization of Hall 7 was continued during the year under
the direction of Assistant Curator Martin. Eight cases of South-
western United States archaeological and ethnological material were
placed on exhibition. Most of the objects, including buffalo-hide
shields, painted buffalo robes, and pottery from pueblos in New
Mexico, as well as ancient pottery, textiles, baskets, and bone,
stone, and wooden artifacts, were never before exhibited. Note-
worthy are the rare and well-preserved objects recovered from Cliff
Dweller pueblos and dry caves containing Basket Maker burials.
The old-style black labels have been replaced throughout this hall
with short, non-technical statements on buff cards in black type.
40 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
The Hopi house was thoroughly cleaned, and the life-size figures
in it were repainted by Mr. Leon L. Pray, of the Department of
Zoology. The Hopi altars were regrouped, and the models of the
pueblo villages repaired and cleaned. Hall 7 now presents an
orderly and attractive appearance.
In Hall 8, a case of Guatemalan textiles was reinstalled so as to
enable the exhibition of the man's costume from Santo Tomas,
Chichicastenango, presented this year by Mrs. Wills B. Lane, as
well as textiles collected in 1931 by the Third Marshall Field Archaeo-
logical Expedition to British Honduras.
In George T. and Frances Gaylord Smith Hall (Hall 24) nine
additional cases were installed this year. These comprise four cases
of ancient Buddhist and Taoist marble sculpture, a case of Buddhist
and another of Taoist bronze votive effigies, a case of T'ang dynasty
tombstones, an exhibit illustrating the neolithic period of China,
and a case of rhinoceros-horn cups. Forty-six framed paintings and
tapestries and one cut velvet hanging were distributed over the walls
of this hall and the South Gallery. The installation of this hall is
now complete.
Reinstallation of Hall 32, devoted to the ethnology of China and
Tibet, has been begun. Plans have been worked out, and a case
of Chinese fans has been attractively installed. A case of Tibetan
costumes, placed on dummies, has been reinstalled.
Rearrangements were made in several cases of the gem room
(H. N. Higinbotham Hall, Hall 31), and a gold beaker from Peru,
presented this year by Mrs. Richard T. Crane, Jr., has been added
to the case of ancient American gold ornaments.
During the year exhibits in twenty-eight cases were installed
or reinstalled on light-colored backgrounds in Joseph N. Field
Hall (Hall A) under the direction of Assistant Curator Albert B.
Lewis. These cases contain ethnological material from New Guinea,
the Admiralty Islands, New Britain, the Solomon Islands, New
Hebrides, New Caledonia, and some of the smaller Melanesian
islands. Opportunity was taken to place on exhibition many
objects not previously shown. One case, that representing the
region around Astrolabe Bay, New Guinea, contains new material
exclusively.
The principal change, aside from the lighter backgrounds, has
been in the rearrangement and grouping of the material so as to
illustrate native life and industries to greater advantage. Numer-
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 41
ous photographs have been added to show local types of dwellings,
and the ordinary clothing and ornaments worn by men and women,
as well as their special festival garb. Wherever possible, photographs
illustrating native industries and methods of work were also added.
These are shown together with specimens in various stages of manu-
facture. Examples are the making of shell beads for money in
New Guinea and the Admiralty Islands; the making of large shell
rings on the island of Tanga, where such rings are used for both
money and ornament; the making of somewhat similar rings, but
by an entirely different method, in northern New Guinea at Berlin
Harbor; and the making of string and fish-nets in the same region.
Among numerous objects of interest are a series of shields and
spears from New Guinea and New Britain; elaborately barbed and
ornamented spears and arrows from the Solomon Islands; a great
variety of clubs from the New Hebrides and New Caledonia; stone-
headed clubs from eastern New Guinea; remarkable carved and
painted tablets and figures from the Gulf of Papua; and huge figures
from the New Hebrides carved out of wood and tree ferns.
During the year installation of five cases illustrating the ethnology
of Australia was completed under the direction of Assistant Curator
Wilfrid D. Hambly. Since the foundation of the Museum some
forty years ago, ethnological material from the aborigines of Australia
has been gradually acquired by purchase and exchange. A selection
made from this material has been so arranged as to represent four
characteristic culture areas, each of which has distinctive forms of
boomerangs, shields, clubs, and spear-throwers. An exceptionally
fine collection of spear-heads, made from quartz and glass, is dis-
played, along with the bones used in pressure flaking to produce the
finely serrated edges. Among objects connected with native magical
practices are shoes of emu feathers used in the tracking and ritual
murder of an enemy; pointing bones for injuring a foe by magical
rites; and a skullcap of gypsum such as is worn by widows at the
graves of their husbands. A representative series of personal orna-
ments, and examples of domestic implements and utensils, are
displayed on the screens. An instructive map showing tribal distribu-
tion, especially drawn for this exhibit, is hung on the wall. The
Australian collection has been placed in an alcove designated Al,
located between Joseph N. Field Hall (Hall A) and Hall E.
The installation of the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World
(Hall C), was completed this year, and the hall was opened to
the public in July. Four new groups were installed in addition to the
42 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
four completed in 1932. Also, nine floor cases with screens, and eight
special wall cases, were installed this year under the direction of
Assistant Curator Henry Field. The hall now contains a total of
eight large groups, fifteen screen cases, and eight special wall cases.
The groups, which are life-size, are as follows: (1) Chellean scene,
France; (2) Neanderthal family at Devil's Tower rock-shelter,
Gibraltar; (3) cave of Gargas, France, illustrating the dawn of art
in the Aurignacian period; (4) sculptured frieze of Le Roc, France,
illustrating the art of the Solutrean period; (5) rock-shelter of Cap-
Blanc, France, showing frieze of animals and Magdalenian sculptures
in high relief; (6) a boar hunt of the Azilian period; (7) sun-worship
by a priest of the neolithic period at Carnac in Brittany, France, illus-
trated in Plate V of this Report; (8) Lake Dwellers of Switzerland.
These groups were planned, and data for them were secured, by
Assistant Curator Field with the cooperation of Abbe" Henri Breuil,
of Paris. The sculptural work was executed by Mr. Frederick
Blaschke, who has succeeded admirably in restoring the various
types of prehistoric man as scientific research indicates they must
have appeared in life. The caves in groups 3, 5, and 6 were also
reproduced by Mr. Blaschke, and are based on studies of the originals.
The painted backgrounds are the work of Staff Artist Charles A.
Corwin. Messrs. Marshall Field, Frederick H. Rawson, and Silas
H. Strawn, members of the Board of Trustees of the Museum,
have contributed to the cost of the exhibits in this hall.
The eight special cases contain the following: the skeleton of
a Magdalenian woman from Cap-Blanc, France, which is the only
Magdalenian skeleton in the United States; a reproduction of the
clay bison at Tuc d'Audoubert, France, the earliest examples in
existence of modeling in the round, of the Magdalenian period; a
tusk of Elephas antiquus from Steinheim an der Murr, Germany;
four colored reproductions of Aurignacian cave paintings; a colored
plaster copy of the Solutrean sculpture of a pair of fighting male
ibexes, one of the most important sculptures of the upper paleolithic
period; six colored reproductions of Magdalenian cave paintings
from Font-de-Gaume, France; eight drawings of animals contem-
porary with prehistoric man in western Europe; three drawings by
the late Amed6e Forestier of reconstructed neolithic hunting scenes;
and photographs and reconstructions of Lake Dweller sites in
southern Germany excavated by Dr. R. R. Schmidt.
The archaeological collections, shown in fifteen screen cases, are
arranged in chronological sequence, covering the periods between
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 43
the Pliocene flint implements of Ipswich, England, and the iron age
of Neuchatel, Switzerland. These exhibits, which comprise human
and animal remains, and artifacts, are placed opposite each of the
groups to which they correspond in time. Especially noteworthy
are the type collections from Solutre" and Tarte* in France; original
Neanderthal fragments; the Aurignacian necklaces from Sergeac,
in France; the Aurignacian objects from Czechoslovakia; Magda-
lenian carvings on bone and stone; and a series of Azilian painted
pebbles.
Altogether the Hall of the Stone Age presents, so far as the present
state of science permits, a vivid, colorful, and impressive picture of
the character and life of prehistoric man in western Europe.
The picturesque textiles from Algeria presented by Mr. Homer E.
Sargent have been installed in a screen case and placed on exhibition.
Much time and care was spent on the rearrangement of storage
rooms on the third floor. On completion of the hall of Chinese
archaeology surplus material from China was sorted, classified,
and neatly arranged with appropriate labels on the steel racks in
Room 66. Room 28 was cleared and is now reserved for the repro-
ductions of Greek and Roman bronzes and for surplus material
from Egypt and Melanesia. Much of the material in storage is
available for exchange or other purposes.
The study collection in physical anthropology, housed in steel
cabinets in Room 39, is now entirely arranged and comprises 450
complete skeletons, 350 of which are from North America and 100
from South America, mainly from Peru; 1,100 skulls, 350 of which
are from North America, 300 from South America, 300 from the
Pacific area, 50 from Kish, Mesopotamia, and 100 from various
other localities; 2,000 fragmentary human remains including skulls
and parts of skulls, long bones, and other bones; and ten articulated
human skeletons including a male and female aboriginal Australian.
There are also a series of casts of racial type heads (mainly Asiatic)
and facial masks from Africa.
The friendly cooperation of Dr. Gerhard von Bonin, Assistant
Professor of Anatomy at the University of Illinois, in restoring and
classifying skulls and skeletal material, is gratefully acknowledged.
The prehistoric archaeology study collection in Room 40, which
contains important material from Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia,
and Central America, has been rearranged. This collection numbers
approximately fifty thousand objects of stone and bone. Combined
44 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
with the material from prehistoric Europe on exhibition in the Hall
of the Stone Age of the Old World, this study collection enables
students to examine representative series from all important ancient
sites so far discovered. Photographs of European sites made by the
three Marshall Field Expeditions to Western Europe are also
available.
Repairing and numbering of specimens and poisoning of exhibition
cases and perishable material were taken care of in the usual manner.
The Chinese gateway formerly shown in Stanley Field Hall,
a number of Indian totem poles, grave posts and house posts, and
two articulated skeletons were loaned by the Museum to A Century
of Progress exposition where they attracted many visitors. Because
of lack of suitable exhibition space in the Museum the gateway
and the totem poles and posts were sold after the close of the
exposition.
DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY
EXPEDITIONS and research
No expeditions were conducted by the Department of Botany
during the year. In Europe, however, Assistant Curator J. Francis
Macbride continued his work, described in the Reports of 1929 to
1932, inclusive, of photographing, under a grant from the Rockefeller
Foundation, type specimens of plants preserved in European her-
baria. During 1933 about 3,000 additional negatives were made,
most of which already have been received at the Museum. The
collection of negatives has now reached a total of more than 26,000,
representing almost as many species, chiefly South American plants.
During the early part of the year Mr. Macbride concluded
his work at the University Botanical Museum of Copenhagen, where
he photographed many of the Central American and Mexican types
obtained by the famous collectors Oersted and Liebmann, as well
as those brought from Brazil by early Danish explorers. The success
of his work at Copenhagen was facilitated by the cordial cooperation
of Dr. Carl Christensen, who is in charge of the herbarium.
After completing work at Copenhagen, Mr. Macbride returned
to Berlin, where he made further photographs of the types preserved
in the remarkably extensive herbarium of the Berlin Botanical
Garden and Museum. As on previous visits to Berlin, Mr. Macbride
received the most hearty assistance from the director, Dr. Ludwig
Diels, and from the staff of the museum and herbarium, and he
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 45
was thus enabled practically to complete the photographing of
South American types.
Toward the middle of the year Mr. Macbride proceeded to
Switzerland, where he had already photographed the types in
certain families. Resuming his work there, he was still engaged
at Geneva at the end of the year. The Delessert and De Candolle
herbaria of the Conservatory and Botanic Garden of Geneva are
much visited by botanists because of the great number of historic
and type specimens that they possess, and several months more
will be needed to complete the photographic work on them. Since
specimens of the De Candolle Herbarium, which is doubtless the
most famous single large plant collection in the world, are never lent
outside the herbarium, photographs of its type specimens are particu-
larly valuable for use in America and other countries. For more than
a century the botanists of Geneva have been celebrated for their
friendliness toward visitors, and for their cooperation with botanists
of other countries, and Mr. Macbride has received the most enthusi-
astic and kindly assistance from the present director of the herbaria,
Dr. B. P. Georges Hochreutiner, who has helped in every possible
manner to make the work a success.
Special mention should be made of the assistance of Dr. Gustave
Beauverd of the Boissier Herbarium and Professor Robert Chodat
of the University of Geneva, who courteously lent for photographing
a large number of types of the Boissier Herbarium, particularly
palms and orchids. Mr. Macbride's work was aided, also, by a
generous loan from the Botanical Garden of Leningrad, through
Professor B. A. Keller, of certain types of palms of which photographs
were made.
It would be impossible to exaggerate the value of this photo-
graphic work, which has now been continued some four and a half
years. The 26,000 photographs thus far obtained represent a great
advance in the practical work of systematic botany in America.
Formerly, in the determination of large collections of plants from
South America, it was almost imperative to visit European herbaria
to make exact identifications, but with these photographs at hand
it is now possible to make determinations with almost as great ease
as if the original specimens were before one's eyes. While the
advantages are most immediately apparent in the Herbarium of
Field Museum, they are also available to botanists generally in
the United States and other countries, for prints from these negatives
46 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
are available at cost of printing to all institutions and individuals
desiring them.
During the year the Museum Herbarium has been in constant
use not only by the staff of the Department of Botany, but also by
an unusually large number of visitors from all parts of the United
States and various foreign countries.
The large plant collections received during the year have occupied
fully the time of the Herbarium staff. Through the employment of
an additional assistant in plant mounting, it has been possible to
prepare for insertion in the Herbarium a large quantity of excep-
tionally valuable and useful material, chiefly from Central and
South America. In the latter part of the year the number of
plants mounted was further increased due to assistance received
from extra workers furnished by the Illinois Emergency Relief
Commission and the Civil Works Service of the federal govern-
ment. All the mounted material has been distributed promptly
into the permanent collections, for expansion of which several new
steel cases have been provided.
There were submitted to the Herbarium for study and deter-
mination 199 lots of plants, consisting of 10,330 specimens. Of
these, 52 lots, consisting of 2,318 specimens, were named and returned
to the senders, while 147 lots, comprising 8,012 specimens, were
retained by the Museum. In addition, there were determined many
plants of the Chicago region, brought to the Museum by visitors,
teachers, and students, or forwarded by mail. There were answered,
also, many inquiries by mail and telephone, calling for the most
diverse information upon botanical subjects.
Associate Curator Paul C. Standley published fourteen papers
based more or less directly upon the Herbarium collections, five of
them, dealing with American trees, in Tropical Woods. His Flora of
Barro Colorado Island, Panama, with 178 pages, a map, and twenty-
one plates, was issued as No. 5 of the Contributions from the Arnold
Arboretum of Harvard University.
Members of the Department staff prepared for Tropical Woods
many abstracts and reviews of current literature relating to tropical
trees and shrubs, and contributed numerous signed articles and
brief items to Field Museum News.
ACCESSIONS' — BOTANY
During 1933 the Department of Botany received 251 accessions,
comprising 30,227 specimens, both numbers being somewhat lower
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 47
than those of the preceding year, although the value of the material
was perhaps equally great. The accessions consisted of specimens
for the Herbarium, for the exhibits, and for the wood and economic
collections. Of the total number, 7,047 were gifts, 13,185 were
received through exchange, 732 were purchased, and the rest were
derived from miscellaneous sources.
Of the Department's total receipts of 30,227 specimens, those
for the Herbarium amounted to 29,794 items — plant specimens,
photographic prints, and negatives. The largest and most important
accession of the year consisted of 2,400 specimens from the Con-
servatory and Botanic Garden of Geneva, received in exchange
through the courtesy of the Director, Dr. B. P. Georges Hochreutiner.
The two shipments containing this material are among the most
valuable and useful consignments of herbarium specimens ever
dispatched from Europe to the United States. They consist chiefly
of historical collections, principally from South America. Most of
them are duplicate types or critically determined specimens. These
shipments have added to the Museum many hundreds of species
which previously were not represented here, and probably not in any
other American museum.
Another collection of valuable specimens of the same nature
was received in exchange from the University Botanical Museum
of Copenhagen, through Dr. Carl Christensen. The material con-
tains 947 specimens, likewise largely of South American plants,
particularly from the Brazilian collections of Warming and Lund.
Mexican and Central American plants obtained by Liebmann and
Oersted are also included. A large proportion of these specimens
represent type material.
From the previously mentioned photographic negatives of type
specimens of tropical American plants made in European herbaria
by Assistant Curator Macbride, there were added to the Herbarium
about 2,500 prints, thus making available for comparison many
species not formerly represented. Three other American institu-
tions purchased from Field Museum 2,377 prints from these negatives.
While under existing financial restrictions it has not been possible
for the Museum to buy some of the highly desirable series of tropical
plants which have been offered for sale, the Herbarium has never-
theless received a large amount of highly valuable material through
gifts and exchanges. Many of the most desirable contributions
have been received in return for the determination of the specimens.
A striking example is a lot of 1,071 plants of the Yucatan peninsula,
48 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
forwarded for determination by the Department of Botany of the
University of Michigan, through Professor H. H. Bartlett. These
make a substantial addition to the Museum's already unequaled
representation of the flora of that unique region.
The Companhia Ford Industrial do Brasil, of Para, Brazil, has
continued its sendings of herbarium and wood specimens from the
Amazon Valley, and during 1933 forwarded herbarium material of
203 trees and other plants, most of which supplement collections
obtained in earlier years. Other important Brazilian collections
received include 292 plants obtained by Mrs. Ynes Mexia, of
Berkeley, California, and 210 specimens collected by Jose" Frambach
and presented by Dr. B. E. Dahlgren, Acting Curator of the Depart-
ment of Botany.
Deserving of special mention among the gifts to the Herbarium
during 1933 are 652 plants from Colombia, presented by the col-
lector, Mr. Alexander E. Lawrance, of Bogota; 474 specimens,
chiefly from the Eggers Ecuador collections, presented by the Uni-
versity Botanical Museum, of Oslo, Norway; 562 plants, chiefly trees
of Central and South America, presented by the School of Forestry
of Yale University, through Professor Samuel J. Record; 436 Costa
Rican plants, received from the National Museum of San Jose\
through Professor Manuel Valerio; 225 Costa Rican specimens,
collected and presented by Professor Harvey E. Stork, of North-
field, Minnesota; 314 plants of British Honduras, collected and
presented by Mr. William A. Schipp, of Stann Creek in that country,
continuing his previous series; 474 Mexican plants presented by the
collector, Mr. C. H. Mueller, of Cuero, Texas; 348 Mexican plants
presented by Mr. H. W. von Rozynski, of Jaumave, Mexico; 225
plants of the United States, collected and presented by Mr.
Hermann C. Benke, of Chicago, who previously had contributed
other extensive collections to the Herbarium; and 324 specimens,
chiefly Hawaiian Compositae, given by Dr. Earl E. Sherff, of Chicago.
Besides the collections specifically mentioned above, the Museum
received through gifts and exchanges much other valuable herbarium
material from tropical America, the United States, Canada, and other
parts of the world. A summary of this will be found in the List
of Accessions for the year (p. 94 of this Report).
The number of specimens accessioned during the year especially
for the economic collections numbered 437. Some of the principal
ones are mentioned in the account of the new installations made
during the year (p. 50). Among others worthy of special mention

are sheets of crepe and vulcanized rubber from the Firestone Tire
and Rubber Company, of Akron, Ohio; specimens of rubber from
Sumatra presented by Van Cleef Brothers, of Chicago; eight planks
of Brazilian woods, representing Amazonian timbers at present being
marketed in the United States, from the Ford Motor Company,
Dearborn, Michigan; specimens of Honduras rosewood and
padauk from Mr. W. S. Scribner of the Craftsman Wood Service
Company, Inc., Chicago; and a trunk of a Livistona palm from the
Garfield Park Conservatory, Chicago.
For the mahogany exhibit, Park Richmond and Company, of
Chicago, presented an unusually fine board of Santo Domingo
mahogany; T. Hofmann-Olsen, Inc., of New Orleans, Louisiana,
gave two boards of Cuban mahogany, plain and figured ; the Mengel
Company, of Louisville, Kentucky, a board of Honduras mahogany;
and Ichabod T. Williams and Sons, of New York, a board of Peruvian
mahogany.
Through the courtesy of S. C. Johnson and Son, Inc., of Racine,
Wisconsin, there were received four specimens of vegetable oils
from Ceara, Brazil. From the Palm Oil Company, Plainfield, New
Jersey, fourteen samples of palm nuts and oil were obtained. From
Mr. G. B. Reuss, Hohen Solms, Louisiana, through the cooperation
of the pecan culturist at the Agricultural Experiment Station,
University of Florida, there were received fifty varieties of pecan
nuts. The Division of Pomology, College of Agriculture, Davis,
California, supplied a fruiting branch of jujube and almond trees.
Mr. C. M. La Follett, of Salem, Oregon, furnished samples of English
walnuts and filberts.
For the paper exhibit, the most notable contributions were
samples of linen rag paper from Crane and Company, Inc., Dalton,
Massachusetts; linen rag paper from Worthy Paper Company, West
Springfield, Massachusetts; bamboo paper from Thomas N. Fair-
banks Company, New York; and esparto pulp and paper from the
McLaurin-Jones Company, Brookfield, Massachusetts, and from
Smith and McLaurin, Ltd., of Milliken Park, Scotland.
Many photographs desired for display in conjunction with
exhibits in the various halls were furnished by individuals and
scientific institutions among whom may be especially mentioned:
the Forest Service and Bureau of Plant Industry of the United
States Department of Agriculture; the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard
University; Dr. S. A. Barrett, Director of the Public Museum,
Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Mr. Hermann C. Benke, of Chicago; and
50 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio. Professor
Ruben de Souza Carvalho, of Sao Paulo, Brazil, contributed twenty
photographs illustrating the coffee industry of the state of Sao Paulo.
The Department distributed through exchanges 13,871 herbarium
specimens, woods, and photographs to forty-six institutions and
individuals of North and South America, Europe, and Asia. Much
of the material distributed consisted of duplicates obtained in Peru
by the Marshall Field Expeditions. Loans of mounted herbarium
specimens amounted to forty-seven lots, comprising 1,963 specimens.
CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING — BOTANY
During 1933 the permanent collections of the Herbarium were
increased by more than 25,000 sheets of plants and photographs,
besides several thousand sheets bearing original printed descriptions
of new species or other published matter useful for study purposes.
The total number of mounted specimens now in the Herbarium is
678,363. There were removed from the collections during the year
1,138 duplicate specimens. The specimens labeled and incorporated
into the collections of the Department of Botany as a whole now
number approximately 700,000. Additions to the records of the
collections of economic material totaled 437 in 1933. New labels
were written for a large part of the exhibits in the Hall of Plant
Life (Hall 29), for all new exhibits, for the economic reference
collections, for thousands of herbarium specimens, and for other
thousands of duplicate specimens distributed in exchange.
From the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University 3,602 cards
were received in continuation of the index of new species of American
plants, and these were inserted in the Museum's file of these cards.
Several thousand cards were prepared and added to the catalogue
of the Department library for the books and pamphlets on various
botanical subjects.
INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS — BOTANY
In the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29) a great improvement has been
effected by a departure from the usual alcove arrangement still
maintained in the other halls of the Department. With the blocking
up of the windows and the change to artificial illumination, it has
been possible to vary the regular succession of equal alcoves which,
in this long hall, formerly produced a monotonous effect of long
rows of exhibition cases, giving prominence to them rather than
to their contents. The rearrangement has resulted in a much more

pleasing appearance of the hall as a whole see Plate VI). The
larger vistas opened facilitate a rapid inspection of the exhibits with
much less fatigue to the visitor. The change was accomplished with
relatively little work, although it called for a certain amount of
reinstallation on account of the new juxtaposition of exhibits.
A considerable amount of new material was added to the exhibits
in this hall. To the mallows, hitherto scarcely represented, there
have been added some life-like reproductions of plants, prepared in
the Plant Reproduction Laboratories of the Museum. An inspection
of this new installation reveals at a glance that this family includes
not only various important food plants, such as the potato, tomato,
eggplant, and the pimentoes. but also the scarcely less important
tobacco plant, as well as various poisonous and drug-producing
plants such as stramonium and belladonna. The reproduction of
a flowering branch of the purple and white Brunfelsia, which was
placed on exhibition last year, acquires a new interest now that
it is found in its proper botanical association with the more widely
known examples of this family.
Gourds, cucumbers, squashes, and their allies, form another
family of economic importance that has also been lacking from this
hall until recently. A beginning toward its representation has been
made by the installation of a half case.
The Panama hat palm represents an interesting plant family
which partakes of the botanical characters of both aroids and palms.
The species which furnishes material for the famous hats of Ecuador
and Peru, commonly attributed to Panama, is shown by a handsome
reproduction prepared from material obtained by the Stanley Field
Guiana Expedition in 1922. Besides serving its purpose as a botanical
exhibit, this specimen is an especially interesting example of Museum
technique in the employment of celluloid for the representation of
plant forms. This exhibit supplements the one in Hall 28 showing
the various steps in the manufacture of a Panama hat.
The aroids are now well represented, a notable addition this
year being a reproduction of Montrid I :.:. a large aquatic calla
lily of the rivers of northern South America. It is one of the chief
food plants of the hoatzin, a primitive claw-winged crested bird.
Material for this, as well as for most of the items added to the
exhibits of which mention follows herewith, was secured in Para
in 1929 by the Marshall Field Botanical Expedition to the Amazon.
Perhaps the most interesting, and certainly the most striking of
these, is a reproduction of a cluster of the edible, brilliantlv colored
52 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
fruit of the peach palm. In size and appearance this fruit, which
grows in large grape-like bunches, is more like the apricot than like
the peach. It is starchy, has a chestnut-like flavor when cooked,
and is highly esteemed as an article of food where it grows.
A Rollinia called "biriba," a large edible fruit of the custard-
apple or cherimoya family, as yet little known outside of the tropics;
a fruiting branch of Lucuma, "abiu," of the sapodilla family; and
a branch of Sterculia, "cupuassu," with its large cacao-like fruit,
have all been reproduced from material and studies on hand, and
have been added to the exhibits. The cupuassu is common in the
lower Amazon region where its fruit is esteemed rather for its
fragrant and delicious pulp than for its seeds which furnish a cacao
differing little from that of the cacao tree proper.
A "hand" of the large banana-like plantain and, by way of con-
trast in size, one of the small-fruited or dwarf bananas, have been
added to the case containing the banana plant. Other minor addi-
tions to the plant reproductions in the hall are tubers of the Poly-
nesian starch plant Tacca; a watermelon-like citron; and the
chayote, a cucurbitaceous fruit or vegetable of the American tropics,
now grown successfully in Florida.
The large and important rose family, which supplies the majority
of fruits in the temperate zone, such as peaches, plums, cherries,
and many common berries, has long been rather poorly represented
in the hall. A recent addition to this exhibit is a splendid reproduc-
tion of an apple branch.
An excellent reproduction of a small fruiting branch of the sweet
gum or liquidambar, of the witch-hazel family, has also been com-
pleted and installed in its appropriate place among the exhibits.
A half case of interesting material, mostly dried or woody, has
been added to the cactus exhibit, together with some remarkable
photographs of the giant cactus of the southwest, kindly furnished
by Professor C. J. Chamberlain of the University of Chicago.
A large number of photographs have been added to the exhibits
to illustrate various plants and features of plant life which otherwise
could not be shown.
A handsome reproduction of a tobacco plant in flower has been
placed in Hall 25 in conjunction with the economic exhibits of
tobacco (see Plate VII).
The most important collection of economic plant material
installed in Hall 28 during the year is that of essential oils, resinoids,
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 53
and essences. The series, consisting of seventy-five items, was
presented by Fritzsche Brothers, Inc., of New York, due to the
interest of Messrs. B. F. and M. B. Zimmer, their representatives
in Chicago. Many of the oils were manufactured by Schimmel and
Company, of Miltitz, near Leipzig, Germany, which also lent a
number of pictures, and these were copied for display in conjunction
with the exhibit. With each item there is shown material such as
leaves, twigs, bark, or wood to indicate the source of the oil. Some
of these were furnished by Parke, Davis and Company, of Detroit,
Michigan; Vaughan's Seed Store, Chicago; the Garfield Park Con-
servatory, Chicago; and the United States Department of the
Interior, Virgin Islands office.
An interesting exhibit added in 1933 is that of the Para rubber
tree (Hevea brasiliensis) . The species is represented by two trunks,
one from a plantation in Sumatra, donated by Van Cleef Brothers
and Williamson Rubber Process Company, of Chicago, and the other
from the islands of the lower Amazon, selected and photographed
by the Marshall Field Botanical Expedition to the Amazon in 1929,
and recently forwarded through the courtesy of Mr. Emilio Kauff-
mann, of Para, Brazil. The specimen from Sumatra shows the
herringbone method of tapping, generally practised on plantations,
while that from Brazil shows the antiquated method of making
incisions in the trunk with a small hatchet, still in use in parts of
the Amazon forests. The exhibit includes also a reproduction of
a fruiting branch of the rubber tree, based on material obtained in
Para by the Marshall Field Expedition of 1929; typical specimens
of crude Para rubber, showing the form in which it is marketed;
and implements commonly used for tapping. This installation
serves as a nucleus for an exhibit of rubber in general, and another
case showing various other species is in preparation.
There was also installed in Hall 28 a series of the most important
vegetable waxes, such as carnauba, bayberry, candelilla and Japan
wax. The carnauba wax is especially well represented by several
grades showing the classification generally adopted for commercial
purposes in the localities of its origin in Brazil.
To the large photographs displayed in this hall, there were added
pictures illustrating the sources of important plant products and
phases of the industries connected with them. These include photo-
graphs of the tung oil tree of China, the kauri tree of Australia,
the Chinese lacquer tree, a rubber plantation in Sumatra, a scene
in a rubber warehouse in Para, oil seeds on an Amazon dock, and
54 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
a chicle gatherers' camp in Yucatan. For their courtesy in supplying
pictures from which some of the enlargements were made, the
Museum is indebted to the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company,
Akron, Ohio; the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University; and
the National Geographic Society, Washington, D.C.
The paper and tobacco exhibits received some further additions.
To the display of cereal products there was added material given
by the American Institute of Baking, of Chicago; Mr. N. Emmerson,
of Chicago; and the International Milling Company, of Minneapolis,
Minnesota.
The most important addition to the foreign woods displayed in
Hall 27 is a series of mahoganies, obtained from various sources as
noted under Accessions (List of Accessions, p. 94). One case is
devoted to American species, represented by boards of Santo
Domingan, Cuban, Honduran, Mexican, and Peruvian mahoganies
of the genus Swietenia. In another half case are shown West and
East African mahoganies of the closely related genus Khaya. The
exhibit is of unusual interest as it affords opportunity to compare
the figure and color displayed by the different species.
Another attractive addition is a group of five panels representing
important Brazilian timbers, most of them well known in the
American market, and mentioned as a gift from the Ford Motor
Company among last year's accessions.
To the series of North American trees in Charles F. Millspaugh
Hall (Hall 26) there were added two species from the Pacific coast,
western red cedar (Thuja plicata) and incense cedar (Ldbocedrus
decurrens). Other species, still lacking in this hall, are on hand
and in the course of preparation for exhibition.
DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY
EXPEDITIONS and research
Collecting for the Department of Geology has been limited to
work which could be undertaken by members of the Department
staff without appropriation for expenses from the Museum. The
most important expedition carried out in this manner was that to
the Paleocene and lower Eocene formations of Colorado, conducted
by Mr. Bryan Patterson, Assistant in Paleontology, in continuation
of work he began last year. The party included, besides Mr.
Patterson as leader, Messrs. James H. and C. A. Quinn of Ainsworth,
Nebraska. After establishing a base camp at Mesa, Colorado, the

party worked in the Plateau Creek valley and along the Mesa-
Debeque road.
A remarkable discovery, when the scarcity of fossils in these
early formations is considered, was three intermingled skeletons,
more or less complete, of the rare and interesting mammal, Titanoides
faberi. Removal of these occupied the party for most of the summer.
A small series of lower Eocene fossils was collected during a recon-
naissance which extended northwards from Mesa as far as Riffle,
Colorado. The expedition collected forty-seven specimens of fossil
mammals, two fossil turtles, and a fossil lizard.
Assistant Curator Sharat K. Roy, accompanied by Mr. Floyd
Markham, of Chicago, spent several weeks in September collecting
invertebrate fossils in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
The expedition was primarily for the purpose of strengthening the
Museum's Cambrian collections, and it obtained much choice
material. Collecting was not confined to the Cambrian, however —
the 615 specimens gathered ranged in age from Cambrian to Creta-
ceous, and included seven fossil fish as well as all classes of inverte-
brates. On two week-end trips to Blue Island, Illinois, Mr. Roy
and Mr. Markham obtained twenty-three Silurian fossils.
Writing for publication has been carried on by Mr. Elmer S.
Riggs, Associate Curator of Paleontology, and by Mr. Patterson,
as opportunity offered. A preliminary description of the newly
discovered South American marsupial sabertooth, Thylacosmilus
atrox, a fossil of unusual interest, appeared as a Museum publication,
and a memoir on the same fossil was read by Mr. Riggs before the
American Philosophical Society and submitted to that society for
publication. Mr. Patterson contributed to the American Journal of
Science a short paper describing a new species of Paleocene amblypod,
Titanoides faberi, and a more complete description of it was published
in the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society.
Investigation and description were actively continued of various
portions of the collections made by the Marshall Field Paleontological
Expeditions to South America, conducted from 1922 to 1927. The
monograph on the Cerro Cuadrado petrified forest of Patagonia,
based on collections made by these expeditions, which was sub-
mitted to the Museum by Dr. G. R. Wieland of Yale University
last year, has been forwarded to the Carnegie Institution of Wash-
ington, D.C., for publication.
A description by Assistant Curator Roy of a remarkable new
trilobite, Dalmanites pratteni, appeared as a Museum publication.
56 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Two other papers by Mr. Roy, one on a new Phyllocarid, and the
other on a new Conularia, have been completed and submitted for
publication.
A biographical memoir of the late Dr. Oliver C. Farrington was
written by Mr. Roy, and read by him at the December meeting of
the Geological Society of America, and it is to be published by that
society. Dr. Farrington, who had been Curator of the Department
since 1894, died in November. A brilliant scholar, noted for his
knowledge of all branches of geology, and especially renowned as
one of the foremost authorities on meteorites and on gems and
gem minerals, his death meant a great loss to the Museum and to
the scientific world. His passing was felt with especial keenness by
his associates in the Department of Geology, among whom he was
held in truly affectionate regard, as well as the highest respect as a
scientist of great erudition and a museum worker of outstanding skill.
Work on Mr. Roy's monograph on the paleontology of south-
eastern Baffmland has progressed normally. During the year it
reached the stage where a comparative study of two earlier collec-
tions made by Charles Hall and the Seventh Peary Expedition was
necessary. These collections are deposited in the American Museum
of Natural History, New York, and in the United States National
Museum, Washington, D.C. Mr. Roy visited each of these institu-
tions for several days, making these comparisons.
The reported discovery of living bacteria in stony meteorites by
Professor Charles B. Lipman, of the University of California,
Berkeley, California, has aroused much interest and controversy in
geological and biological circles, as this discovery, if confirmed,
would point to a possible extra-terrestrial origin for the life of the
earth. The discovery needs confirmation, and no more favorable
place could be found than this Museum for the work necessary to
this end. The Museum has the largest of all meteorite collections,
and much research on meteorites has been done here. Also, the
resources of the bacteriological laboratory of the University of
Chicago and the cooperation of the bacteriologists there, are available.
Mr. Roy has begun and nearly completed this work, using for this
purpose four meteorites from the Museum collection, and the
equipment of the university's bacteriological laboratory. The
interest and cooperation of Dr. Noel Hudson of the university, and
his assistant, Mr. Floyd Markham, have been invaluable. Mr.
Roy has closely followed Professor Lipman's procedure so that the
results of the two investigations may be comparable.

Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 57
In the chemical laboratory of the Museum the numerous tests
and analyses needed for identification of specimens were carried on
as usual. An investigation of the nature of the corrosion of one
surface of the Gladstone meteorite was made preparatory to its
exhibition. A quantitative analysis of a chert was made, for publica-
tion, by Acting Curator Henry W. Nichols and Assistant Curator
Roy. Ten analyses and identifications requiring chemical work
were made for the Department of Anthropology, and for the same
Department a bronze was treated by the Fink process. An investiga-
tion of a de-greasing problem was made for the Department of
Zoology by Acting Curator Nichols and a member of the Zoological
Staff. The facilities of the laboratory were used by a member of
the Botanical Staff for the determination of the specific gravities
of various woods. Some tests needed for the maintenance of the
building were also made.
Mr. Nichols participated in the organization meeting of the
Society for Research on Meteorites which was held at the Museum.
This meeting took place several months before the death of Curator
Oliver C. Farrington, who was elected Honorary President of
the organization. Mr. Nichols was elected a councilor.
Members of the Department Staff contributed fourteen signed
articles, and twenty-two unsigned articles and short items, to Field
Museum News, and supplied data for twenty newspaper articles.
Visiting scientists and members of museum staffs were received in
the Department in unusually large numbers. Among the distin-
guished foreign visitors were Sir Arthur Smith Woodward and Mr.
W. Campbell Smith, of the British Museum; Sir John Flett, of
the Geological Survey of Great Britain; Dr. Victor van Straelen,
Director of the Royal Museum of Natural History at Brussels;
Dr. H. A. Brouer, of the University of Amsterdam; Professor
Richard Willstatter, of Munich; M. Leon Bultingaire, of the
Museum of Natural History of Paris, and Dr. A. W. Grabau of
the National University of Peiping, China. These, as well as
numerous visitors from American museums, were shown through the
Department workrooms, and methods of installation and prepara-
tion used at this institution were discussed with them.
Requests from correspondents and visitors for information and
identification of specimens were received in even larger numbers
than usual. Many visitors to A Century of Progress exposition
brought specimens from home to the Museum for identification.
58 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
There were 307 correspondents and 441 visitors referred to the
Department for these and similar services.
ACCESSIONS — GEOLOGY
Accessions were received during the year from sixty-four sources.
Of these, fifty-six were by gift, seven by exchange, one by purchase,
and three were collections made by members of the Department
Staff. The specimens included in these accessions totaled 1,421.
The most important gift of the year was a collection of fifty-five
cut gems brought from the island of Ceylon and presented to the
Museum by Prince M. U. M. Salie, Ceylonese gem merchant. The
collection includes examples of all the more important precious stones
found in Ceylon, and embraces every color through the entire
spectrum from red to violet, with colorless varieties as well. Out-
standing in beauty and interest are the sapphires, star sapphires,
rubies, a star ruby, aquamarines, moonstones, and an oriental
amethyst sapphire. The collection is an important addition to the
gem collection in H. N. Higinbotham Hall (Hall 31).
Mr. Stephen Varni, of New York, presented a series of specimens
illustrating the several stages of cutting a "varnistar" from rock
crystal. These stages are, in a general way, the same as those of
cutting any faceted gem, but as the star is large, the stages can be
better seen than if an ordinary gem were used. As the star is brighter
than the crystal from which it is cut, the series has been provided
with a label explaining in detail why the brilliancy and fire of a
gem is increased by proper cutting.
A cabinet of eight tubes containing rare gases of the atmosphere
was the gift of the Air Reduction Sales Company of Chicago. The
gases shown are exceedingly rare elements — argon, neon, helium,
krypton, and xenon — which are found in the atmosphere only in the
most minute quantities. These gases are transparent and invisible in
their ordinary state, but can be made to glow brilliantly in charac-
teristic colors when excited by an electric current applied under
suitable conditions. In order to permit the gases to be seen they
are placed under reduced pressure in tubes which have electrodes
for application of an exciting current. The cabinet has been provided
with a push button and transformer. When the button is pressed
each tube glows with its characteristic color. These tubes also
illustrate the phenomenon of fluorescence. Some of the gases are
shown in two tubes, one of plain glass and the other of a glass in which
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 59
is incorporated a fluorescent substance, so that the glow of the gas
excites a brilliantly colored fluorescence in the glass.
The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) presented seventy-four
specimens and sixty photographs which present a synopsis of the
multitudinous uses of the products of petroleum. This synoptic
collection now occupies a large case placed in a prominent position
in the central aisle of Hall 36.
The mining industry of Poland is now well represented in the
collections as the result of a gift of sixty-one ores and minerals of
that country presented by the Polish Institute for Collaboration
with Foreign Countries, of Warsaw.
Although the basic plan of A Century of Progress exposition is
such as to preclude the possibility of obtaining from it such large
accretions to the collections of the Department as came from earlier
world's fairs, two accessions of importance have been secured from
this source. One is the gem collection presented by Prince M. U. M.
Salie, which has been mentioned above. Another is a gift of twenty-
seven specimens of ores of Washington presented by the Northwest
Mining Association of Spokane, Washington. This represents late
aspects of mining in that region, and is important enough to compel
a thorough revision of the exhibit of the mineral resources of that
state. A number of other collections which were especially desired
were secured through the efforts of the Acting Curator, but due to
the continuance of the exposition in 1934 they could not be delivered
immediately.
A nine-inch cubic crystal of fluorite growing out of a mass of the
mineral, which was presented by the Crystal Fluorspar Company,
of Elizabethtown, Illinois, forms a welcome addition to the small
group of exceptional minerals displayed in individual cases in Hall 34.
Mr. William B. Pitts, of Sunnyvale, California, presented a small
collection of agate and opal of more than usual merit. Specimens of
the rare native lead from two hitherto unrecorded localities were
presented by Mr. Frank Von Drasek, of Cicero, Illinois, and Mr.
Robert R. Lipman, of Chicago. Mr. James Manning, of Chicago,
contributed an example of placer gold ore from the vicinity of Nome,
Alaska, which was unlike specimens already exhibited. The Chisos
Mining Company, of Terlingua, Texas, contributed fifteen examples
of the mercury ores of that district, which had hitherto been inade-
quately represented in the collections.
Mr. Darsie A. Green, of Norman, Oklahoma, presented two
geodes of an unusual kind not hitherto represented in the collections.
60 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
The Houston Museum of Natural History, of Houston, Texas, pre-
sented an attractive specimen of pink calcite. A specimen of urano-
phane and four other minerals from the pegmatite deposits of North
Carolina were presented by Mr. Burnham S. Colburn, of Biltmore,
North Carolina. Three specimens of two newly discovered species
of fossils, one a crustacean, and the other a pteropod, were collected
and presented by Mr. Floyd Markham, of Chicago. They are now
being named and described by Assistant Curator Roy. A specimen
of the rare rock, rhombenporphyry, which is seldom found elsewhere
than in Norway was collected at Oslo by Mr. Johan Eriksen of that
city and presented to the Museum.
Mr. Fritz Ackermann, of Bahia, Brazil, presented two phantom
quartz crystals of unusual excellence. Mr. A. C. Jones, of Cicero,
Illinois, contributed four choice specimens of wulfenite and cerussite.
Mr. Herbert C. Walther, of Chicago, besides adding a specimen
of molybdenum to the rare element collection to which he has so
liberally contributed in the past, contributed to the mineral collection
specimens of ulexite, trona, and halite. Three sylvites from New
Mexico, which were needed additions to the collection of potash
minerals from American localities, were presented by Mr. 0. J.
Dowling, of Carlsbad, New Mexico. A specimen of diaspore, con-
tributed by the A. P. Green Fire Brick Company, of Mexico, Mis-
souri, is an example of a mineral which has become of economic
importance in recent years. An interesting specimen, presented by
Mr. Frederick Blaschke, of Cold Spring-on-Hudson, New York,
consists of gravel mixed with grains of placer gold which had been
picked up by a duck and found in the bird's crop.
The principal accretions to the invertebrate fossil collections
were the 615 specimens from Assistant Curator Roy's expedition to
New Jersey and adjacent states. The full value of this collection
cannot be determined until it is worked out, a task which will take
some time.
Three fossils from Blue Island, Illinois, represent two new species
and are of such interest that descriptions of them have been prepared
for publication.
The fifty-one specimens from Assistant Patterson's expedition
to Colorado are more valuable than the number would indicate. The
three Titanoides skeletons provide material for a mount of this large
and rare mammal. Researches by members of the Department Staff,
based upon these specimens, which are more complete than any
before known, have increased knowledge of the nature and relations
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 61
of this hitherto almost unknown animal. The lower jaws of a shovel-
tusked mastodon from Mongolia were received from the Fourth
Asiatic Expedition of the American Museum of Natural History,
in which Field Museum cooperated. Mr. James H. Quinn, of
Ainsworth, Nebraska, presented eighteen specimens of fossil mam-
mals and one fossil reptile. Other citizens of Ainsworth who con-
tributed are Mr. Leslie K. Quinn, who presented a partial skeleton
of a fossil rodent, and Mr. Fred E. Herre, who gave the jaw of a
fossil mammal. Another mammal jaw was contributed by Mr.
Vergil Deardorff, of Silt, Colorado.
The skeleton of a Plesippus was obtained by exchange with the
United States National Museum, Washington, D.C., to supplement
the growing series of fossil horses. Fifteen barites and four tufas
were obtained by exchange with Mr. F. G. Mcintosh, of Beverly
Hills, California. Three specimens of French bauxite, obtained by
exchange with the Salgues Foundation of Brignoles, France, permit
a better presentation of the important French aluminum ores.
One hundred twenty-nine fossil plants, including four fossil
cones, were obtained through an exchange of duplicates with Dr.
Ralph W. Chaney, of the University of California, Berkeley, Cali-
fornia, and etched sections of two meteorites were received by
exchange from the United States National Museum, Washington,
D. C.
Eighteen specimens of meteorites and crater products from the
recently discovered meteorite craters of Henbury, Australia, have
been received by exchange with the Kyancutta Museum of South
Australia, and constitute the most important addition to the meteor-
ite collection since the acquisition of the Ward collection many
years ago. The specimens of the meteorite are accompanied by other
specimens which show the effects of the terrific heat generated by
the impact with the earth of thousands of tons of iron moving at
high velocity. Some of the specimens are fragments torn from the
iron meteorite while in a plastic state at the moment of impact.
Others are rock fused to lava and thrown out of the craters, and
silica-glass formed from melted sandstone.
CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING — GEOLOGY
New entries recorded in the Department catalogues, now com-
prising twenty-six volumes, totaled 1,421 during 1933. These,
added to previous entries, give a total of 191,820.
62 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Preparation of copy for new labels, and for replacing labels on
black cards with buff-colored ones, was carried on continuously
during the year. A total of 1,215 labels was written and sent to
the Division of Printing. In order to afford information regarding
the exhibits until the permanent labels are ready, eighty-nine
temporary typewritten labels were written and installed. A total
of 644 labels was received during the year from the Division of
Printing.
The number of photographic prints added to the Department
albums was eighteen, bringing the total of such prints to 7,498.
Labels for all prints were prepared and filed with them. Ninety-
five new United States Geological Survey maps were received,
filed, and labeled, making the number of these maps now available
3,848.
INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS — GEOLOGY
The exhibits of the Department were disturbed as little as possible
by changes of installation during the period of A Century of Progress
exposition because of the influx of visitors to the Museum at that
time. Only two changes involving moving or emptying cases were
made, and other work of installation was limited as far as was
practicable to the opening and closing months of the year when
the fair was not in progress.
The collection of fifty-five Ceylonese gems presented during the
year by Prince M. U. M. Salie, as mentioned under Accessions (p. 58),
was installed in H. N. Higinbotham Hall (Hall 31), the stones being
distributed among the collections in their proper places according
to their relation to other gems previously exhibited. This new
material greatly augments the value and interest of the collections
in this hall as a whole.
In Hall 34 three cases, made in the Department workrooms,
have been added to the new series of small cases for the prominent
display of large, choice minerals which was started by the installa-
tion of a single case last year. These cases, which are twenty inches
square and forty-six inches high, are glazed on all four sides and
conform in style with the other cases in the hall. They are placed
against the A-shaped cases of the alcoves facing the aisle so as to
provide a prominent position for the fine specimens they contain.
A series of twelve such cases is contemplated. The others will be
installed from time to time as suitable material becomes available.
The cases installed this year contain a large mass of lapis lazuli
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 63
from Peru, two tall selenite columnar crystals from Chile (see
Plate IX), and a fluorite crystal from Illinois.
Where it has been necessary to install two or more rows of
specimens on a wide shelf the view of the rear row is more or less
obscured by the specimens in front. To overcome this to a degree
a combined block and label holder has been designed which raises
the specimen with its label so that it can be seen. The specimens
thus raised also serve to break up the rather monotonous flat surface
of the back of the case. In many cases the view of small crystals
is obscured by the accompanying label unless the label is placed
to one side of the specimen, which is undesirable. A small supporting
block entirely concealed by the label has been devised to obviate
this difficulty. Five hundred and sixty-two blocks of both of these
types have been made in the Department and installed in ten cases.
Eighteen specimens of meteorites, and the products of their
impact on the earth, from the recently discovered meteorite craters
of Henbury, Australia, have been installed in Hall 34 directly opposite
the large collection of meteorites from the earlier known and larger
meteorite crater at Canyon Diablo, Arizona. This makes the third
of the world's five generally recognized craters to be represented
in the collections. In addition to the Henbury specimens two other
meteorites have been added to the collection.
A group of five specimens showing the process of cutting a
crystal star from rock crystal has been added to the collection of
forms of gems and cut stones in the same hall. As this collection
demonstrates the increase of brilliancy imparted to gems by skillful
cutting it has been provided with a label which explains, in detail,
the reasons for the increase of fire and brilliancy.
The former exhibit of rare gases of the atmosphere has been
withdrawn and replaced by a larger and more efficient collection
installed in a different location. The new exhibit consists of five
rare gaseous elements from the atmosphere in tubes so arranged
that they glow under the passage of an electric current when a
button is pressed. It has been installed on the bridge connecting
Hall 36 and Frederick J. V. Skiff Hall (Hall 37).
In Hall 36 the collections have been increased by the addition
of such specimens as have been received during the year. The
collection of liquid products of petroleum which occupied a large
case in the center aisle of the hall has been discarded and replaced
by an improved collection presented by the Standard Oil Company
(Indiana). The new collection is installed on a pyramid in a large
64 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
square case with exhibition faces on all four sides. Each specimen
is accompanied by a photograph which shows one of its principal
uses. As there are thousands of petroleum products it has not been
possible to illustrate the subject in detail, but a synoptic collection
of seventy specimens has been assembled which shows the great
diversity of the products and their uses, and includes many uses
unsuspected by the average visitor.
The principal change in Frederick J. V. Skiff Hall (Hall 37) is
the replacement of 518 of the old-style black labels by labels of the
new type which match the background of the cases. Two of
the large gypsum crystals from South America have been removed
and reinstalled in an individual case in Hall 34 as an addition to
the mineral collection. Additions of specimens received during the
year have been made to the collections in seven cases. An example
of potash minerals from a mine in the newly discovered field in
Texas and New Mexico now supplements the former specimens from
this field which were obtained from drill holes. A better specimen
of the French bauxite has replaced an unsatisfactory one. The
collection of rare elements has been increased by additional gifts
from Mr. Herbert C. Walther, of Chicago. Several fluorites of
Illinois have been added to the fluorite collection, and specimens
have been added to the gold, copper, and nickel collections.
In Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38) a highly interesting and
educational group called "Fossil Skeleton in the Earth" (see Plate
VIII), prepared by Mr. Phil C. Orr, of the Department Staff, was
installed. The specimen is one of the giant sloths, Scelidotherium
bravardi, from the pampas formation of Argentina, and was collected
by the Marshall Field Paleontological Expedition of 1927. It is
mounted in the position in which it was found in a sandy clay bed
a few feet below the surface. It had been exposed by a small wash
which had cut away its banks at high water. A section of the
terrane is shown in the background, clumps of pampas grass are
used as accessories, and a glimpse of the landscape is shown by a
painted background by Mr. Charles A. Corwin, Staff Artist. This
group serves well to show how animals are covered over in an alluvial
formation, how they are preserved for long periods as fossils, and
how they are again brought to light by stream erosion.
Fifteen smaller vertebrate fossils were also installed, as were
two descriptive labels, forty-one short labels, and a photograph.
The introduction of new exhibits has led to some changes and
regrouping. The two old models of Plesiosaurus and Ichthyosaurus

have been removed from exhibition. In order to make room for the
new group, the skeleton of the Irish deer and the model of the
moa have been moved from their former places in the north end of
the hall to new positions nearer the center. This has improved the
balance of the exhibits.
In the laboratories of vertebrate paleontology preparation of
specimens has been continued throughout the year by Mr. J. B.
Abbott and Mr. Orr of the Staff. Mr. J. H. Quinn, a skilled preparator,
served three months as a volunteer worker. Work in this laboratory
included, besides the major task of preparing and mounting the group
"Fossil Skeleton in the Earth," the preparation of a number of other
fossil mammal specimens. South American fossil mammals prepared
and in process are two skulls of Ancylocoelus, one skull of Rhyn-
chippus, two of Thoatherium, three skulls and two jaws of Equus
andium and the carapace of the large glyptodont, Panochthus.
Another foreign fossil mammal specimen prepared and mounted is
a pair of jaws of the strange shovel-tusked mastodon of Mongolia,
Platybelodon. North American fossil mammals prepared include a
skull and jaws of the rare horned gopher, Epigaulua hatcheri, and
three skulls and various skeletal parts of the rare and hitherto little-
known Paleocene mammal, Titanoides faberi.
In the laboratory of invertebrate paleontology five sections of
fossils were made, and fifty-one fossils were prepared. Mr. Lawrence
Brundell, a student volunteer assistant, worked for two months on
the fossils of the Chicago area, performing satisfactory work.
The reserve and study collections of economic geology material,
which were originally labeled and arranged in systematic order in
trays in Room 120, have for some years been outgrowing the space
assigned to them. These collections have been completely reorganized
and rearranged. They are now classified geographically and by kinds
in trays in such shape that any wanted specimens can be readily
found. The utility of the rearrangement has been demonstrated
several times during the year when visitors to A Century of Progress
came to the Department for the purpose of studying groups of
specimens for which room has not been found in the exhibition cases.
A much needed specific gravity balance for the chemical labora-
tory was built by Department labor and is in regular use. Distilled
water has been provided by this laboratory as needed for the James
Simpson Theatre, and for the Divisions of Photography and
Photogravure.

DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH
Through the timely assistance of several patrons, it was possible
to carry out one zoological expedition completely, to get another
into the field in November ready to begin work and to organize a
third which is scheduled to start in January, 1934. The first of
these was the brief but successful Hancock- Wegeforth Expedition to
Guadalupe Island for Field Museum; the second was the Leon
Mandel Guatemala Expedition of Field Museum; and the third
the Straus West African Expedition of Field Museum.
The expedition to Guadalupe Island, off the west coast of Mexico,
was conducted during April and May, and was made possible mainly
through the cooperation of Captain G. Allan Hancock, of San
Francisco, and Dr. Harry M. Wegeforth, President of the Zoological
Society of San Diego. Essential assistance was received also from
the Emily Crane Chadbourne Fund, and from the Mexican govern-
ment, which courteously supplied the necessary permission to make
collections in its territory. Dr. Wegeforth kindly made preliminary
arrangements, and the Museum sent Messrs. Julius Friesser and
Frank Wonder, of its taxidermy staff, to Los Angeles, where they
were received by Captain Hancock and taken to the island on his
scientific cruising ship Velero III. The object of the expedition
was to secure elephant seals for a habitat group, and in less
than two weeks' time this was done. Five fine specimens were
obtained, ranging in weight from a small one of 250 pounds to a
large bull of some 5,000 pounds. The skins and bones reached the
Museum in excellent condition, and preparations for the production
of the group were rapidly advanced.
The generous support given by Mr. Leon Mandel, of Chicago,
made possible the organization of the expedition to Guatemala,
with a personnel and equipment adequate for work in various
branches of zoology during a period of five or six months. Assistant
Curator Karl P. Schmidt is leader of the party, and his major
efforts are being devoted to certain special studies in Central Ameri-
can herpetology. Other members of the party are Mr. Emmet R.
Blake, of Pittsburgh, ornithologist; Mr. F. J. W. Schmidt, of
Madison, Wisconsin, mammalogist; and Mr. Daniel Clark, of
Chicago, general assistant. The expedition sailed from New Orleans
November 22, landing at Puerto Barrios a few days later and
beginning work at once in tropical rain forests near the coast. One
of the immediate results was the securing of material for a habitat
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 67
group of a handsome species of toucan, a bird characteristic of the
American tropics and well suited to the needs of the projected hall
of habitat groups of foreign birds. Specimens, accessories, photo-
graphs, and notes for this group, complete in all respects, were
brought together and shipped to the Museum within a few weeks.
Meanwhile, general collecting was reported as successful, and late
in December Mr. Mandel sailed to join the expedition and spend
several weeks with it in the highlands of central and western Guate-
mala. The herpetological studies of Mr. Schmidt during the course
of this expedition are provided for under a fellowship granted to
him by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation of New
York. The expedition has had the cordial cooperation of the United
Fruit Company and the government of Guatemala, which the
Museum gratefully acknowledges.
The Straus West African Expedition, generously financed by
Mrs. Oscar Straus of New York, was organized in December, and
at the close of the year was in final stages of preparation. Under
the leadership of Mr. Rudyerd Boulton, Assistant Curator of Birds,
this expedition expects to sail from New York about January 25,
1934, for the port of Dakar, Senegal. Besides Mr. Boulton, and
Mrs. Straus herself, who is to accompany the expedition over a
considerable part of its route, the personnel will include Mr. Frank
C. Wonder of Field Museum's taxidermy staff, who has been assigned
to collect mammals; Mr. John F. Jennings, of Chicago, who will
go as photographer; and Mrs. Rudyerd Boulton, who will accompany
the expedition under a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New
York to study and record primitive tribal music.
Work will be carried on in French West Africa, Nigeria and
Angola (Portuguese West Africa). Since the natural history of this
region is practically unrepresented in Field Museum, results of much
value to the institution are expected.
During the year arrangements were made for the Museum to
participate, to a limited extent, in the Antarctic Expedition of
Admiral Richard E. Byrd, who accepted a commission to obtain
specimens of the emperor penguin for a habitat group.
Seven publications were issued in the Museum's Zoological Series.
These consisted of descriptions of recently discovered animals or
brief accounts of current research. Included are two papers by Dr.
Wilfred H. Osgood, Curator of the Department, on South American
rodents; two by Assistant Curator Karl P. Schmidt on Central
American reptiles; one by the same author on a new Arabian snake;
68 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
one by Assistant Curator Colin C. Sanborn on South American
bats; and one by Assistant Curator Alfred C. Weed on the fishes
known as halfbeaks. Twenty signed articles by staff members and
thirteen unsigned articles and short items were contributed to Field
Museum News. Data were supplied for twenty-six newspaper
articles.
Unpublished zoological manuscripts have accumulated and now
include those for Parts VII and VIII of the Birds of the Americas,
by Associate Curator C. E. Hellmayr; The Fishes of the Crane
Pacific Expedition, by Dr. A. W. Herre, of Stanford University;
The Mammals of Chile, by Curator Osgood; African Reptiles and
Amphibians in Field Museum, by Mr. Arthur Loveridge, Associate
Curator of Herpetology in the Museum of Comparative Zoology,
Cambridge, Massachusetts; The Turtles of the Chicago Area, by
Assistant Curator Schmidt; and Types of Lepidoptera in the Strecker
Collection, by the late William Barnes and Mr. F. H. Benjamin,
of the United States National Museum, Washington, D.C.
Research on material from past expeditions was continued so
far as possible, but while much of this material is still being prepared,
catalogued, and incorporated into the collections, time for research
is limited. Moreover, the staff's time for research during 1933 v/as
reduced by the necessity of supplying information or otherwise
giving personal attention to the unusual number of visiting scientists
attending conventions in Chicago, as well as to the many amateur
naturalists who presented themselves among the unusually large
attendance during A Century of Progress exposition. Associate
Curator Hellmayr, working in Vienna, completed work on Part
VIII of the Birds of the Americas and proceeded with the preparation
of Part IX. Curator Osgood continued studies of South American
mammals, especially those from Chile; Assistant Curator Sanborn
gave some time to neotropical bats and the literature pertaining to
them; Assistant Curator Boulton worked at intervals on certain
African finches, flycatchers, and guinea fowl; Assistant Curator
Schmidt studied Central American reptiles, especially in their relation
to the data gathered during his recent examination of types in
European museums; Assistant Curator Weed made some progress
in the preparation of a report on the fishes of Aitutaki Island, col-
lected by the Philip M. Chancellor Expedition to the South Pacific;
and Assistant Dwight Davis prepared and made preliminary examina-
tion of the skeleton of the West African giant frog, a rare species
not hitherto studied in detail.

Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 69
accessions — zoology
From an average of about 14,000 for the previous eight years,
accessions of zoological specimens dropped, in 1933, to 5,147, and
of these more than one-fourth were obtained through expeditions
which terminated prior to 1933. They are distributed by zoological
groups as follows: mammals, 332; birds, 512; amphibians and reptiles,
888; fishes, 1,452; insects, 1,953; lower invertebrates, 10. The number
obtained by Museum expeditions and local field work is 1,434; by
gift, 3,106; by purchase, 5; and by exchange, 602. The gifts come
from a large number of donors, and reflect especially the continued
interest and cooperation of local naturalists.
Mr. C. Suydam Cutting, of New York, from whom the Museum
has previously received much valuable material, presented an
interesting collection obtained by Captain F. Kingdon Ward and
Lord Cranbrook in northwestern Burma. This comprised 133 mam-
mals and seventy birds. Among the mammals are various species
previously unrepresented in the Museum, and among the birds are
paratypes of three new forms. A pair of Kuzer's blood pheasant
in this collection also is notable. Twenty-two small mammals from
the provinces of Kweichow and Kwangsi, China, were presented
by the Metropolitan Museum of Natural History, of Nanking, China.
Other gifts of mammals are recorded in the List of Accessions (p. 94).
Mr. and Mrs. John P. Kellogg, of Chicago, gave 117 African
birdskins collected by themselves in Kenya and Tanganyika. In-
cluded are specimens from the little-visited Ngorongoro Crater,
which are especially interesting. Other accessions of birds were
largely from local sources, and a considerable number were received
in fresh condition for preparation as skeletons.
The Walker Museum, of the University of Chicago, presented
twenty-six amphibians and reptiles from the Galapagos Islands,
supplementing the valuable series from the same islands given in
1932. Mr. P. M. Miles, of St. Louis, Missouri, generously gave a
skeleton of the large Komodo Island lizard, an acquisition which
will greatly facilitate a study of this interesting animal. A further
much appreciated gift of amphibians and reptiles consists of 158
specimens from Chile, received from Mr. Dillman S. Bullock, of
Angol, Chile.
The John G. Shedd Aquarium has continued its cooperation with
Field Museum by presenting many specimens of fishes from its
expeditions and its surplus. A total of 257 fishes, many of them
70 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
extremely interesting, were received from this source. Among them
were at least ten species new to the Museum and others of much
value for its reference collection. Mr. Stewart Springer, director
of the Caribbean Biological Laboratories, Biloxi, Mississippi, pre-
sented forty-five fishes from the Gulf of Mexico, and through his
recommendation another lot of 105 specimens from the same region
was received from Mr. John Daily, of Indianapolis, Indiana. Dr.
E. Milby Burton, director of the Charleston Museum, Charleston,
South Carolina, has sent three lots of pickerel collected by himself
in that state as gifts from the Charleston Museum. These have
an important bearing on studies which are under way on the distri-
bution and classification of the smaller pickerels of North America.
Gifts of brook trout from Mr. Phil G. Zalsman, of Grayling, Michigan,
have provided material for exhibits to show the color changes in
this species.
The most noteworthy gift of insects was a series of 402 specimens
from Mindanao, Philippine Islands, collected and presented by
Mr. L. H. Phillips, of Patterson, California. This was of especial
interest since it contained a number of attractive and unusually
large species hitherto quite unrepresented in the Museum. A further
desirable gift of insects consisting of 260 specimens, mainly beetles,
was received from Mr. Emil Liljeblad, of Chicago. Mr. Edward
Brundage, Jr., of Lake Forest, Illinois, gave 231 insects of various
orders found in the United States.
CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING — ZOOLOGY
Catalogue entries were made for 7,033 zoological specimens. Of
these 1,747 were mammals, 1,594 birds, 1,110 reptiles and amphibians,
and 2,582 fishes. Labels for 3,000 skins of mammals were written
and attached. A total of 479 skulls also received numbers and labels.
Rearrangement and relabeling of mammals in alcohol was begun,
and details connected with the incorporation into the permanent
collections of recent large accessions of mammals were carried on
at a high rate. The arrangement of the reference collection of birds
received much attention, and various segregated collections were
organized so as to be at least temporarily accessible. The types of
birds, numbering 289, were segregated from the general collection
and placed in a special case. The J. Grafton Parker collection of
North American birds, which had suffered from exposure to dust
before being presented to the Museum several years ago, was
thoroughly cleaned and renovated by Mr. Donald Hirsch, who
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 71
acted as volunteer assistant in the Division of Birds during the
summer months.
Plans were perfected for the increase of storage space for the
reference collections of mammals and birds by combining the storage
rooms into one, with only an open aisle between the rows of cabinets
containing the collections. Removal of walls and remodeling for
this purpose were actively under way in December. This will result
in improved light and accessibility, as well as an increase of space
amounting to nearly 80 per cent. Sixteen steel storage cases for these
collections were received early in the year, and in December delivery
of twenty-four additional ones was in progress. The usual routine
was continued in caring for collections of reptiles, amphibians, and
fishes. Of the 1,699 insects prepared for incorporation in the collec-
tion, 1,297 were pinned and labeled. Name labels were written for
368 specimens rearranged in new drawers. In continuation of
the permanent improvement of the collection, nine drawers of North
American beetles, including aquatic species and carrion feeders,
were identified and arranged in new containers.
In the Division of Osteology much progress was made in arranging
and systematizing the collections. Card indexes were completed
for all skeletons of mammals and birds, and so far as possible the
material was classified and arranged in systematic order. A survey
of the collection of mammal skeletons, now possible for the first
time, reveals that eighty-six families, 279 genera, and 360 species
are represented by the 536 specimens in the collection. Twelve
skeletons of large mammals were cleaned by maceration in the
macerating room. About one hundred skeletons of small birds and
mammals were cleaned by dermestids in the same room. Miscel-
laneous skulls of mammals, numbering about 400, were also cleaned.
Seven skeletons were mounted, and various others were cleaned
and adapted for exhibition use.
As in former years, considerable assistance was received from
volunteer workers and students, especially during the summer
months. Mr. Donald Hirsch and Miss Jacolyn Fox assisted in the
Division of Birds, Mr. Walter Necker in the Division of Reptiles,
and Mr. Robert Allen in the Division of Mammals.
Routine work of the Department was greatly advanced through
the assistance received in the latter part of the year from workers
assigned to the Museum by the Illinois Emergency Relief
Commission and the federal Civil Works Service. These men and
women performed such work as cataloguing and numbering of
72 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
mammal, bird and fish specimens, indexing, cleaning of skulls, and
various copying tasks on the typewriter.
Cooperation with other museums through the exchange of loans
was carried on at a somewhat higher rate than usual. A total of
2,272 specimens was loaned to other institutions during the year,
and 1,699 were borrowed.
INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS — ZOOLOGY
The preparation and installation of new zoological exhibits were
continued at scarcely less than the highly productive rate of recent
years. Four large habitat groups of mammals were completed and
opened to the public. The subjects were the African lion, the
gaur or seladang, the manatee, and the orang. A group of bower
birds was prepared and placed in Stanley Field Hall. Two cases
of mammals were added to systematic exhibits in Hall 15, and six
screens of birds, equivalent to three full cases, were added in Hall 21.
Large numbers of fishes and certain reptiles were prepared, but
most of these were awaiting installation at the close of the year.
The lion group (see Plate XI), occupying a prominent position
in Carl E. Akeley Memorial Hall (Hall 22), is one of the results of
the trip which Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Field made by air to central
Africa in 1930. It includes a large male lion shot by Mr. Field, an
equally fine lioness shot by Mrs. Field, and four small kittens. The
male stands at attention on a commanding and rocky eminence,
the female, with her kittens gathered between her paws, lies peace-
fully below. The rocky setting faithfully represents the well-known
habitat of lions in the Serengetti Plains of Tanganyika. The group
is impressive, characteristic of the animals, and notable for the
effective simplicity of its composition. It was designed and prepared
by Staff Taxidermist C. J. Albrecht.
The great gaur ox of Asia, otherwise known as the seladang,
is represented by three animals grouped in a forest setting in
William V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17). This species, which is perhaps
the finest of all wild oxen, is richly colored and striking in appearance.
A large bull is shown emerging from thick forest into a grassy opening
where a cow and calf stand at ease in calm, bovine unconcern.
Specimens for this group are all from Indo-China, but were received
from three sources. The large bull fell to the rifle of Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt while leader of the William V. Kelley-Roosevelts Expedi-
tion to Eastern Asia for Field Museum in 1928-29. The cow was
presented by the late Charles Rydell, of Superior, Wisconsin, and
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 73
the young calf was especially collected and presented for the group
by Messrs. George F. Ryan and George G. Carey, Jr., of Baltimore.
The taxidermy is by Messrs. Julius Friesser and Arthur G. Rueckert
of the Museum staff. The background was painted by Staff Artist
Charles A. Corwin.
A group of orangs (see Plate X), to some extent a reinstallation,
but in actual effect practically a new exhibit, was also given a place
in William V. Kelley Hall. The animals for this group were mounted
many years ago by the late Carl E. Akeley, but their installation
in a square floor case was unsuitable for the Museum's present
building. Therefore, the group was completely rearranged and
adapted to a new setting in a built-in case with a painted background.
This required the construction of an entire tree-top scene in a tropical
forest which was very successfully carried out by Staff Taxidermist
Leon L. Pray.
A group of the Florida manatee or sea cow provided an
important addition to the Hall of Marine Mammals (Hall N).
Specimens for this purpose were obtained in fresh, natural condition
through the cooperation of the John G. Shedd Aquarium. Two
animals are shown in an under-water setting, one in semi-upright
and the other in horizontal position. Both are engaged in feeding
on water plants. The animals are reproduced in celluloid-like
material in which details of skin texture and exact shades of color
are perfectly preserved. The group was produced by Staff Taxi-
dermist Leon L. Walters, assisted by Mr. E. G. Laybourne. The
background was painted by Mr. Pray.
In the systematic exhibits of mammals in Hall 15, variations
and additions were made. A case of dogs and wolves was reinstalled
to include most of the important species of the family Canidae except
the foxes. Another case was completed, displaying the interesting
order of edentate mammals, the sloths, anteaters, aardvark, arma-
dillos, and pangolins. Due to the many valuable accessions from
recent expeditions, it was possible to prepare a practically complete
series of these animals. The rather difficult taxidermy is mainly by
Taxidermist Rueckert assisted by Mr. Frank C. Wonder. A further
notable addition in Hall 15 was a single orang installed in its appro-
priate place among the other manlike apes. This was prepared by
Taxidermist Walters, who used the so-called "celluloid" method.
It is the first large hairy mammal to be treated in this way and
is exceedingly successful. The reproduction was cast from a fresh
specimen, and by a somewhat intricate process the skin was replaced
74 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
in all naturalness by the celluloid-like composition in which the hair
is embedded exactly as it was in the original skin.
To the exhibit of horned and hoofed mammals in George
M. Pullman Hall (Hall 13) there was added a huge and
excellent specimen of American bison bull. The animal, which
weighed about 2,300 pounds when alive, had belonged to the herd
on the American Ranch at Twodot, Montana, and was presented
to the Museum by Colonel Wallis Huidekoper, owner of the ranch.
The specimen was mounted by Taxidermist Friesser.
A small habitat group of the fawn-breasted bower bird of New
Guinea was prepared by Assistant Taxidermist John W. Moyer and
installed in Stanley Field Hall. The birds are shown occupied in
their extraordinary courtship display, with the "bower" and com-
plete accessories, which were carefully collected for the purpose by
the Cornelius Crane Pacific Expedition of Field Museum (1928-29).
Five screens of North American birds were prepared by Staff Taxi-
dermist Ashley Hine and installed in the systematic series in Hall 21.
One of these is devoted to herons, ibises, and storks; two others
(reinstallations) show rails and shore-birds; and two show small
passerine birds, including flycatchers, swallows, jays, creepers, wrens,
mockingbirds, and allies. For the foreign series a screen showing
the birds of paradise and their relatives was prepared by Mr. Moyer.
Interesting and beautiful celluloid models of two species of angler-
fishes and of the peculiar sargassum fish were produced by Taxi-
dermist Rueckert, and placed on exhibition in Albert W. Harris
Hall (Hall 18). The specimens used were presented by the John
G. Shedd Aquarium which also provided facilities for observing the
colors and actions of the species in life. Further fishes in large
numbers were completed by Taxidermist Pray, but installation
was delayed for the coming year. These are mainly very bright-
colored tropical fishes collected by the Crane Pacific Expedition
and the Field Museum-Williamson Undersea Expedition to the
Bahamas (1929).
Important installations and reinstallations of skeleton exhibits
were made in Hall 19, devoted to osteology, by Assistant Curator
Edmond N. Gueret and his assistant, Mr. D. D wight Davis.
THE N. W. HARRIS PUBLIC SCHOOL EXTENSION
At the end of the year the Department of the N. W. Harris
Public School Extension had 1,200 traveling exhibition cases of
natural history and economic subjects available for loaning to
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 75
Chicago's 333 public schools and forty-one branch schools, with
an enrollment of 492,670 children. To these schools bi-weekly-
distribution of two cases each was maintained throughout the
scholastic year and, in addition, the University High School of the
University of Chicago, thirty-seven parochial and private schools,
seven branches of the Y.M.C.A., nine branches of the Chicago
Public Library, two Boys' Union League Clubs, and four social
settlements were given the same scheduled service. To deliver and
collect the 868 cases loaned to these 434 various schools and other
institutions, it was necessary for the Museum's two trucks to travel
a distance of 9,947 miles.
During the year requests from several organizations were received
and granted for the loan of cases. Twelve cases were shown at
a session of the annual convention of the American Association of
Museums, which was held in the Museum's small lecture hall.
Eighteen cases of insects, birds, and wild flowers were loaned to
A Century of Progress exposition, where they were exhibited in
the Hall of Science. At the request of the superintendent of the
United Charities of Chicago, twelve cases were sent to Camp
Algonquin. Eighteen cases of birds and reproductions of wild flowers
were placed on display in the book section of Marshall Field and
Company, and fifteen cases were shown in a special booth at the
International Live Stock Show in the Union Stock Yards.
Eight cases, all duplicates, were permanently withdrawn from
circulation. Twenty-five new cases were installed, and sixteen others
are in process of construction. Two of the new cases prepared by
Department Taxidermist A. J. Franzen contain an instructive display
of cellulose-acetate reproductions of seven species of salamanders
found near Chicago.
The activities of the members of the Department Staff were to
a great degree devoted to the repairing of 209 cases. The fact that
many of them have been in constant use for a score of years renders
it necessary to give a great amount of attention to their maintenance.
Forty-three cases were completely reinstalled, some with curved
tinted photographic backgrounds and new accessories. This work
consumed as much time as the preparation of new cases. The time-
curled wax leaves of more than one hundred older exhibits were
restored to their original shape by a method devised in the Depart-
ment. This method was also used in giving to celluloid leaves and
flower parts their natural curve and form.
76 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
The black labels of 916 cases were replaced with standardized
buff labels, and copy was written or revised for 207 subjects. The
work of reinforcing the corners of case label frames was completed.
To facilitate the delivery of the cases to the schools, all damaged
cases are now returned to the laboratories of the Department for
necessary repairs. All the cases were inspected, cleaned, and polished
during the year.
Hundreds of letters were received from principals, teachers,
students, and others, expressing their appreciation of the service
rendered by the Department.
THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND
FOUNDATION FOR PUBLIC SCHOOL AND
CHILDREN'S LECTURES
The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation has
again provided lectures and entertainments for children at the
Museum and in the schools. While the work in the schools has
continued as in the past, the financial situation has greatly curtailed
the number of school groups visiting the Museum for the purpose
of classwork in the exhibition halls.
entertainments for children

February 22 — Washington's Birthday Program: Gateway to the West; Shrines
of American History.
September 30— Program by Indians from the American Indian Villages at
A Century of Progress.
Twenty-two programs in all were offered free to the children of
the city and suburbs during the year. The total attendance at these
entertainments was 25,950, of which 14,237 came to the spring
course, 6,296 to the autumn course, and 5,417 to the special programs.
The following newspapers gave publicity to the programs:
Chicago Daily News, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Herald and Examiner,
Chicago Evening American, and Chicago Daily Illustrated Times.
An expression of appreciation for films loaned for the programs
is due to the United States Department of Agriculture, the General
Electric Company, the Department of the Interior of Canada, the
United Fruit Company, the Films of Commerce Corporation, the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company, the Michigan
Department of Conservation, the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul
and Pacific Railway Company, the National Museum of Canada,
and the Atlas Educational Film Company. Acknowledgment is
due also to the American Indian Villages at A Century of Progress
exposition for making possible presentation of the program by
Indians on September 30.
MUSEUM STORIES FOR CHILDREN — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
Two series of Museum Stories for Children were written by
members of the Raymond Foundation staff. These were published
and copies were handed to all in attendance at the entertainments.
78 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
A comparison of the following subjects and the films presented at
the entertainments will show how they are correlated:
Series XX — Reynard the Fox; Beavers as Engineers; Crabs; Spruce Trees; The
American Porcupine; The Secretary Bird; Yellowstone Park; Pollen and
Nectar Carriers; Penguins; The Flight of Birds.
Series XXI — Interesting Indian Blankets; The Hawaiian Islands; Why Columbus
Sailed West; In the Land of the Tibetans; Gnus; Glass, Natural and Arti-
ficial; The Aphids; Musk-Oxen; Kangaroos; Hibernation.
A total of 25,000 copies of Museum Stories for Children was
distributed during the year.
LECTURE TOURS FOR CHILDREN — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
Classwork in the exhibition halls has been extended to the
following groups:
Number Attendance
of groups
Tours for children of Chicago schools
Chicago public schools Ill 4,497
Chicago parochial schools 13 659
Chicago private schools 13 202
Tours for children of suburban schools
Suburban public schools 92 3,480
Suburban parochial schools 5 227
Suburban private schools 10 180
Tours for special groups from clubs
and other organizations 40 2,225
In all, 284 groups were given guide-lecture service and the attend-
ance was 11,470.
In the first week of December, the Museum was host to 788
boys and girls who were in the city as delegates to the Annual
Congress of 4H Clubs of the United States. The boys lunched in
the cafeteria, and both groups were given special lectures in the
halls devoted to animal life, prehistoric plants and animals, and
the Hall of the Stone Age of the Old World. That the visit to the
Museum was an outstanding feature of the congress has been
evidenced by the great number of letters received since the boys
and girls returned to their homes.
EXTENSION LECTURES — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
Extension lectures were offered to the schools as in previous
years. The following subjects were offered to both high schools and
elementary schools and were presented in classrooms and assemblies:
For Geography and History Groups
South America; North American Indians; Glimpses of Chinese Life; Native Life
in the Philippines; The Romans; The Egyptians; Migisi, the Indian Lad.
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 79
For Science Groups
Field Museum and Its Work; Prehistoric Life; Insects and Reptiles; Coal and
Iron; Coffee, Chocolate and Tea; A Trip to Banana Land; Food Fishes of the
World; Birds of the Chicago Region; Animal Life in the Chicago Region;
Trees of the Chicago Region; Wild Flowers of the Chicago Region; Animals
at Home; Our Outdoor Friends.
The total number of extension lectures given by the staff of
the Raymond Foundation was 423, and the total attendance was
160,750.
NATURE STUDY COURSE — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
At the request of the Chicago Council of Boy Scouts of America,
two lectures on natural history topics were arranged for scout-
masters. At each lecture a member of the Raymond Foundation
staff presented natural history material which would be of assist-
ance to leaders of scout groups. The subjects offered were:
May 13 — Wild Flowers and Insects
May 20 — Birds of the Chicago Area
RADIO BROADCASTING — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
Radio broadcasts by the Raymond Foundation staff were given
in connection with the school radio programs of Station WMAQ as
long as the series was offered. From January to the end of the spring
semester, fourteen talks were presented to the lower grades in the
elementary schools. The talks correlated with the course of nature
study being used in those grades.
ACCESSIONS — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
The Raymond Foundation acquired during the year, for use in
the Theatre, a number of slides made by the Division of Photography.
The Raymond Foundation was also the beneficiary of the follow-
ing acquisitions: eight motion picture reels, Tibetan Dances, presented
to the Museum by Dr. Wilhelm Filchner, of Berlin, Germany;
two reels and several hundred feet of extra strips on India, presented
by Mr. Arthur S. Vernay, of New York; seven reels, Simba, presented
by The American Museum of Natural History, New York; sixteen
reels of film and 148 slides of racial types presented by Miss Malvina
Hoffman, of New York; 150 feet of film on Elephant Seals purchased
from Mr. W. Charles Swett, of Hollywood, California, and 108
slides on Kish presented by Mr. Henry Field, of Chicago.
The film library of Field Museum now contains 164 reels of
35-millimeter film, 26 reels of 16-millimeter film and 27,700 feet of
negatives secured by various staff members while on expeditions.

LECTURE TOURS AND MEETINGS FOR ADULTS — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
As in previous years, the services of Museum guide-lecturers
were offered, without charge, to clubs, colleges, conventions and other
organizations, and to Museum visitors in general. Special tours
were offered during the months of July and August for the benefit
of visitors to A Century of Progress exposition. Printed monthly
tour schedules were placed at the main entrance for the use of
visitors, and were distributed also through libraries and other civic
centers of the city and suburbs. During the year, 150 general tours
and 190 tours covering specific subjects were offered to the public.
The adult groups which took advantage of these lecture tours
numbered 337, with a total attendance of 11,340 individuals. Besides
the regular public tours, special lectures were given to eighty-five
groups from colleges, clubs and other organizations, and these were
attended by 2,072 persons.
The use of the small lecture hall was extended to Chicago Boy
Scout masters for two lectures, to the Izaak Walton League for
three meetings, to the Association of American Museums for one
meeting, to the American Association for the Advancement of
Science for five meetings, and to the Society for Research on Meteor-
ites for three meetings. Total attendance at these meetings was
1,284. Of those who attended, 597 were concerned with children's
activities, and 687 with adult activities.
The James Simpson Theatre was used for four meetings of the
American Association for the Advancement of Science, attended by
649 persons, and for the graduating exercises of foreign adults who
had been studying in the public schools of the city. The attendance
at the latter was 682. Total attendance 1,331.
SUMMARY OF ATTENDANCE AT ENTERTAINMENTS, LECTURES,
TOURS, ETC. — RAYMOND FOUNDATION
The total number of groups reached through the activities of
the James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation for Public
School and Children's Lectures was 1,156, and the aggregate attend-
ance included in these groups numbered 212,179 individuals.
LECTURES FOR ADULTS
The Museum's fifty-ninth and sixtieth courses of free lectures
for the public were given in the James Simpson Theatre on Saturday
afternoons during the spring and autumn months. They were

A special program for adults, given on May 6, at which The
Maori as He Was, an official motion picture made under the
auspices of the Commonwealth of New Zealand, was shown to 585
persons, brought the total attendance at adult programs to 22,787.
SUMMARY OF ATTENDANCE AT LECTURES, ETC.
The total number of groups receiving instruction or other services
from the Museum during the year was 1,188, including an aggregate
attendance of 236,984 individuals. These figures include the 1,156
82 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
groups and 212,179 individuals reached through the activities of
the James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation for Public
School and Children's Lectures, as well as the 22,787 persons attend-
ing the seventeen lectures and the special motion picture program
provided by the Museum for adults, and 2,018 persons attending
the various meetings of outside organizations to which the use of
the James Simpson Theatre and the small lecture hall was made
available.
LIBRARY
In common with other libraries, the Museum's Library has
felt the effects of the general economic depression in two ways.
Necessarily, purchases of books have been restricted, and the
periodical list has been cut. On the other hand, the Library's
service to the public has increased. Many persons out of employment
have been using their unoccupied time for studies, in which they
have taken advantage of the facilities offered by libraries in general,
including the one in the Museum. In some cases such study has
been undertaken with the objective of being better prepared for their
work when they resume it; in others, it has been purely cultural study.
The number of readers in the Library has been increasing each
year, partly because more people are learning that this Library is
for the use of the public in general, and partly because the books
supplement those found in other libraries. During the winter and
spring many students from universities came to find additional
material for papers and theses. During the summer some of the
visitors to A Century of Progress exposition took the opportunity
to consult books in the Library. The meeting of the American
Library Association brought to Chicago librarians from all parts
of the country, and also from abroad, many of whom were interested
in the Museum Library's work.
A very important and helpful change was made in the Library
during the year. For several years past the shelves had been so
crowded that it was difficult to keep the books even approximately
in order. Early in 1933 additional space was provided, and stacks
were erected in it. This made it possible to bring from the ground
floor many books which had not been on the shelves since the
Museum moved into the present building. Also, other books which
had been temporarily in one of the departmental libraries were
brought back to the general Library and placed on the shelves. This
gave opportunity for a complete rearrangement of the general
Library which has added materially to the ease and convenience with
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 83
which the books are handled. Following this, the books in the
anthropological library were cleaned and completely rearranged,
making available much needed additional space.
During the year cataloguing of the archaeological papers collected
by Assistant Curator Henry Field, on his archaeological expedi-
tion to Europe in 1931, has been completed. This collection includes
much material that will be of increasing value in coming years and
the cataloguing, involving the writing of some 3,000 cards, adds
vastly to its usefulness.
The Library depends for its growth chiefly on its exchanges, and
in this year, when purchases were so limited, these have been even
more essential than normally. Because they include so much
material regarding the work carried on in other institutions they
are most welcome additions. Several new exchange agreements were
effected and as a result considerable material of value and usefulness
has been added to the Library. Some exchanges have also been made
with members of the Museum staff whereby many useful books have
been obtained.
It was found necessary to curtail seriously the number of
periodicals previously received. This drastic cut, and the lack of
recent books, has been much felt by members of the scientific staff
requiring certain reference material in their work. Several staff
members have assisted in relieving this situation by subscribing to
some of the periodicals so that there would be no break in the files,
and also by presenting many books which were needed.
The Library has been favored by the receipt of other gifts which
will add to the working value of the collection. A fund of $450
contributed in 1932 by the American Friends of China, Chicago,
was used in 1933 for the purchase of books to supplement the
literature already available on China. The books acquired with
this money have been carefully selected with a view to their
usefulness. A special bookplate was made for them so that they
may always be distinguished as the gift of this society.
The Library was also enriched by the gift from Mrs. Robert E.
Ross, Mrs. Joseph H. King, and Mrs. William E. Pratt, all of Chicago,
of a copy of Oriental Ceramic Art, illustrated by examples from the
collection of William Thompson Walters, in Baltimore, Maryland.
Mr. Walters, who was art commissioner to the Paris Expositions in
1867 and 1878, and to the Vienna Exposition in 1873, made a remark-
able collection of French and Chinese art, which was later increased
by his son. The catalogue of this collection, now presented to the
84 Field Museum of Natural History— Reports, Vol. X
Library, is a rare work, published in 1897, and consists of ten beauti-
fully bound volumes in five portfolios, containing many fine illus-
trations. The plates, 116 in colors, and more than 400 in black and
white, show exquisite workmanship. The text was written by S. W.
Bushell. A limited edition of only 500 copies of this work was
published, and Field Museum is fortunate in becoming the possessor
of this set.
Among other gifts of the year may be mentioned the following:
Volumes 9 and 10 of Obras completas, presented by Direccion de las
obras completas de Ameghino, of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Les peintures
rupestres schematiques de la peninsule iberique, in two volumes,
received from Abbe Henri Breuil, of Paris; Three Kingdoms of
Indo-China, relating to the William V. Kelley-Roosevelts Expedition
to Eastern Asia for Field Museum, and given by the authors, Mr.
Harold Coolidge, of Boston, and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, of
New York; L'homme, races et coutumes, as well as Volumes 14, 16,
and 29 of the Memoirs of the Egypt Exploration Fund, and Volume
85 of the publications of the Palaeontographical Society, presented
by Mr. Henry Field, of Chicago; Volume 1 of Natural History of
Central Asia, and current numbers of The Illustrated London News,
presented by Mr. Stanley Field, President of the Museum; and Flora
Micronesica, received from Mr. Ryozo Kanehira, of Sukuoka, Japan.
The work of Miss Malvina Hoffman in Chauncey Keep Memorial
Hall, devoted to the races of mankind, has been outlined elsewhere
in this Report. In connection with her preparatory travels and
studies Miss Hoffman necessarily accumulated a number of books
dealing with physical anthropology. These have now become the
property of the Library and they are a distinct addition to the
Library's material on this subject.
During 1933 there were accessioned 1,950 books and pamphlets.
To the catalogues there were added 11,175 cards, bringing the total
number of catalogue cards written to 422,854. From the John Crerar
Library 6,176 cards were received and filed.
To the Library's record books, now occupying seventeen volumes,
there were added 1,950 entries, making the total number of entries
84,475.
As in previous years, the Library takes pleasure in acknowledging
the courtesy of other libraries in lending books that were needed
in work here. Among those that have thus assisted should be men-
tioned the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; John Crerar
Library, Chicago; the University of Chicago; the Museum of Com-
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 85
parative Zoology of Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts;
the Boston Public Library; the American Museum of Natural
History, New York; the New York Public Library.
DIVISION OF PRINTING
During the early part of the year the Division of Printing was
engaged chiefly in the printing of exhibition labels for the
Departments, the total number being 20,804. Miscellaneous work
for the year totaled 460,597 impressions. Because of an unusual
demand for guides, handbooks, leaflets and post cards, the Division,
during the latter part of the year, devoted most of its time to this
work.
In the regular Museum publication series eleven new numbers
were issued, of which one was anthropological, two geological,
seven zoological, and one the Annual Report of the Director for 1932.
Of these a total of 13,737 copies was printed. The aggregate number
of pages of type composition was 576. Two indexes for completed
volumes, one botanical and one geological, totaling thirty pages of
composition, were issued. Of these 1,621 copies were produced.
A new edition of the General Guide to Field Museum's exhibits,
two new editions of the Handbook of Field Museum, two anthro-
pological leaflets, two geological leaflets, and a reprint of an
anthropological leaflet, were issued. These booklets represent a
total of 474 pages of composition, and production of them was
32,074 copies.

DIVISIONS OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATION
The total number of negatives, prints, enlargements of photo-
graphs, lantern slides, and transparent exhibition labels made by
the Division of Photography during the year was 8,956. Of these,
464 photographic prints and ninety lantern slides were for sales on
orders placed by the public. The balance were for various uses in
Departments and Divisions of the Museum.
In the Division of Photogravure there was produced a total of
521,700 photogravure prints. These were for the illustration
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 87
of publications and leaflets, for headings of posters and membership
certificates, and for picture post cards.
The Museum Illustrator completed 842 orders for the Museum's
Departments and Divisions. Included among these were 204 pen
drawings, 29 maps, retouching of 46 photographs, and other mis-
cellaneous tasks.
DIVISION OF PUBLICATIONS
The list of museums, research organizations, scientific societies,
and individuals with which Field Museum maintains relations for
the exchange of publications was subjected to careful scrutiny in
1933 to eliminate, as a measure of economy, a minority which had
nothing to send in return for the scientific literature received from
this institution. Notwithstanding these eliminations, the distribu-
tion of publications to institutions and individuals remaining on the
list, both in this country and abroad, continued on a generous scale.
The distribution in the United States and its possessions, and that
in foreign countries, are practically equal in number. During the
last year 6,723 copies of scientific publications and 1,044 leaflets
were sent out on exchange; also, 4,020 copies of the Annual Report
of the Director for the year 1932 and 1,072 leaflets were sent to
Members of Field Museum. Sales for the year totaled 627 scientific
publications, 14,809 leaflets, and 14,030 miscellaneous publications
and pamphlets.
Sixteen new exchange arrangements, which it is hoped will prove
of mutual advantage, were established with domestic and foreign
institutions.
The Museum again desires to express its appreciation to the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington, D.C., for the courteous
cooperation of its exchange bureau in effecting delivery of publica-
tions in far-off countries.
For future distribution and sales, 14,847 copies of the various
publications issued during 1933 were wrapped in 305 packages and
were stored.
Two leaflets published in the summer have proved especially
interesting to the public, more than 4,100 copies having been sold
in the last six months of the year. They are The Races of Mankind,
which was issued in connection with the opening of Chauncey Keep
Memorial Hall devoted to the living races of mankind, and Prehistoric
Man, which was published at the time the Hall of the Stone Age
of the Old World was opened.
88 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
Other leaflets, especially those relating to evolution, prehistory,
and ancient civilizations, continued to be "best sellers," both by
mail and to Museum visitors. Popularity is indicated also for one
published late in the year, A Forest of the Coal Age, which relates
to the Museum's three-dimensional restoration of a landscape of
Carboniferous time.
POST CARDS
The great demand for Museum post cards during A Century
of Progress exposition made it necessary to install a third card
stand. Like the two installed in 1929, it is so located and constructed
as to permit viewing and selecting with ease the cards, leaflets, and
publications displayed. The total number of post cards sold was
164,729, an increase of 90,139 over the 1932 sales.
Two new sets of cards were added to the series issued by the
Department of Anthropology, one containing thirty-five views of
bronzes depicting the races of mankind, and the other ten views
of dioramas of prehistoric man. Many requests have been received
for both, more than 500 sets of the pictures of the bronzes alone
(totaling over 16,000 cards) having been sold during the last six
months of 1933.
One of the card sets issued by the Department of Geology in
1929 was revised to include reproductions of all twenty-eight of the
mural paintings of prehistoric landscapes, plants, and animals, which
are exhibited in Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38). Two sets of
eighteen cards each were added to the zoological series, and one set
of twelve cards on botanical subjects was issued. Additions to the
individual post card assortment include forty-six anthropological
subjects, twelve botanical, eleven geological, fourteen zoological,
and three general.
DIVISION OF PUBLIC RELATIONS
World-wide publicity, with newspapers and magazines giving
unusually extensive space to articles and photographs, was received
by the Museum in 1933 as a result of the opening of Chauncey Keep
Memorial Hall devoted to the races of mankind, and the Hall of
the Stone Age of the Old World. The openings of these halls were
signalized also by special programs over the radio networks of the
National Broadcasting Company. The halls were productive of
much favorable editorial comment as well as news stories. A series
of editorials by Mr. Arthur Brisbane, widely known journalist,
appeared in affiliated newspapers from coast to coast. The magazine
Jan. 1934 Annual Report of the Director 89
Fortune, in its October issue, published a notable series of large
pictures in colors of the groups in the Hall of the Stone Age together
with an article on the subject. The Illustrated London News gave a
full page to photographs of the bronzes in Chauncey Keep Hall.
General publicity about all activities of the Museum having an
interest to the public was maintained through the institution's
Division of Public Relations as in preceding years. This has been
made effective by the splendid cooperation received from news-
papers, news-distributing agencies, magazines and other media of
publicity. Those located in Chicago, naturally, have given the most
attention to the Museum, but the press of the nation, and of foreign
countries, has likewise manifested an intense interest in news of the
more important activities of the institution. In addition to
publishing several hundred articles and news items sent out from
the Museum, some of them accompanied by photographs, editors
have assigned members of their staffs to obtain special articles and
series of pictures concerning the Museum.
The monthly bulletin, Field Museum Neivs, completed its fourth
year of publication. It has been distributed to all Members of
the Museum promptly at the beginning of each month, and has also
been sent as an exchange to various scientific institutions, and to
a number of newspapers and magazines which have frequently
reprinted or quoted parts of its contents. In publishing the News
constant endeavor has been made to include in each issue articles
and pictures which would be of interest to Members both at the
time of receipt, and for preservation in reference files. Indication
that this has been accomplished is seen in the many requests received
for back numbers.
As in past years various organizations have placed at the disposal
of the Museum, without charge, the facilities of their advertising
media, and it is fitting here to express appreciation of these favors.
Posters announcing the Field Museum lecture courses were again
displayed in the spring and autumn at the city and suburban stations
of the Illinois Central and the Chicago and North Western Railways.
Libraries, schools, department stores, hotels, clubs, and other
establishments likewise displayed these posters. Folders descriptive
of the Museum were distributed by local and interurban transporta-
tion companies of the Chicago region as well as by railroads through-
out the country.
At the invitation of Radio Station WGN of the Chicago Tribune
a series of talks by members of the Museum staff was begun, this
90 Field Museum of Natural History — Reports, Vol. X
series to continue into 1934. Other radio stations also contributed
to the publicity opportunities of the Museum.
In line with the Museum's general economy program it became
necessary early in the year to discontinue purchase of press clipping
service. However, the Consolidated Press Clipping Bureaus of
Chicago, which for years had furnished the service, very generously
made an offer, which was accepted, to supply service on a more
limited scale without charge.
DIVISION OF MEMBERSHIPS
The number of persons on the Museum's membership lists again
shows a decline. This was to be expected, in view of the protracted
economic depression, and duplicates the experience of most similar
institutions during these times. It is gratifying to be able to report,
however, that the decrease in memberships in 1933 was considerably
less than the losses which occurred in 1931 and 1932. In 1931
there was a decrease of 702 Members; in 1932 the loss was 819;
and, against these figures, the loss in 1933 was only 320. New
Members have been enrolled in place of many who resigned.
The institution has continued to enjoy the loyal support of by
far the greater proportion of its Members, and to them is extended
an expression of appreciation. To those who have been forced
to resign due to economic circumstances, appreciation is expressed
for their past assistance to the institution, and it is hoped that
improved conditions will soon make it possible for them to resume
their association with the Museum.

CAFETERIA
A very accurate count was kept of the number of persons served
in the cafeteria, and the total shown at the end of the year was
165,907. This was an increase of 101,773 compared with the number
served in 1932, and is attributable to the Museum's record attendance
of more than 3,000,000 visitors.
In addition approximately 45,000 were served with refreshments
in the special children's room operated in connection with the
cafeteria, making the total number served in both rooms more
than 210,000.
Eight tables and thirty chairs were added to the cafeteria equip-
ment, and additional steel shelving and an extension of the dish-
washing table were provided in the kitchen.
In the pages which follow are submitted the Museum's financial
statements, lists of accessions, names of Members, et cetera.
